FML part deux

I'm feeling pretty crappy and depressed. I'm a downer so may want to play somewhere else today. Again

I saw a pug! I can't resist. I must meet and smooch this newest addition to a friends home.

He not really a friend, he's our mechanic and we've known him for many many years. I guess he really is a friend, but not like a call up and chit chat kind of friend. Whatever.

And he says Saralee (his daughters new 'room mate') has a pug. So I gotta see him.

His name is Sparky. Or Spanky. I forget.

First thing I notice is that his head is huge! And then he is a bag of bones. Bony ribs, sunken flanks.

How's his diet? Does he eat well, have any diarrhea?
No, he eats well.
Has he been wormed?
Oh yes, he's been wormed.

She. Does not look like the type of gal that would spend money on a vet. If she did the vet would surly notice the mange on his wrinkles.

He's two years old and not fixed. She says. The lady I got him from wants to breed him one more time and then I'll get him fixed.

Great. He's a puppy mill puggy with a trashy new owner.

He needs to be rescued.

This does nothing to improve my mood.

FML

FYI I scrubbed my hands lest I bring whatever evil this sweet dog is harboring back to my own furry children.

Oh I would be beside myself! I've met people like that and you just want to scoop up the dog and run. Can you go back and let this trashy tramp know that you have concerns about her dog and that you'd be happy to take him and get him well?

Want me to come down and open a can of whoop ass on her? I'll hold her down and you can kick her if ya want. Then we'll grab the pug and run like hell!

Big hugs out to ya.
Love, Shannon

So sorry you're feeling down. We hate Winter here too, but trust me - ours lasts much longer than yours! We can't plant until May. I hope the sun shines bright on your today!!
