Something to make the day better: a VERY happy elderly pittie (with about 1 working brain cell on a good day) whose kid came home from college for a visit. ❤️

It's absolutely insane that while packing supplies for my college-bound kiddo, I need to include bleeding control kits in the event of a shooter. Plus Narcan. I hate this.

On my third one (none of them covered by insurance) - my dog ate the first two. Necessary after breaking two teeth from grinding and getting an implant. I'll be in dental debt until I die. 😤 🦷

Who is happier than a pile of rescued pitties sleeping through a broiling day in a cool air-conditioned room? No one. (Currently waiting on a 107 degree train platform myself... )

Friends... help me help a sad older lady. I will help transport anywhere. Belly is a sweet 10 y/o who belonged to a friend's uncle who died three weeks ago. She is affectionate and loves a walk, but is ready to come home after 1 mile. No cats but is fine with other dogs and loving humans. Dm me!

A sad dog who just lost her human and needs a safe space to land.

November is Adopt a Senior Dog Month. And if you want a two-fer, adopt a senior pitbull. Fastest way to lift your mood in the current hellscape. #pitbull #adopt #endBSL

This is Mama. She has been waiting for a home for years. She's a great dog, she just needs to be an only dog. She's going downhill after so long without a family. Can someone be her hero? East coast. I will pay the adoption fee and transport her for an approved adopter.

Adopt a senior dog. While you don't get as much time with them, every day is worth it. (Salsa, age 10, adopted last fall after 3 years in a shelter.) ❤️

Is there anything sweeter than pibble cuddles? I don't think so.

Why all of my rescue dogs are always allowed on my sofa. It inevitably is their happy place/comfort zone. Something a about a cozy sofa says "home" to them.

But multicolored. It will likely join the growing pile of sweaters with one sleeve (i have ADHD and knitting sleeves bores me to tears)

My last sweater took almost a year. Due to existential angst and insomnia, I finished this one in a week. 🧶

10 days after her marathon transport from Florida after three years without a home, 10 year old Salsa has been accepted into the pibble pile, with Frankie (age 9) and Addie (age 4), both dogs who waited years while they were overlooked. One more day of Adopt a Senior Pet Month!

I forgot that the first few weeks of integrating a new dog into the pack is hellish (but always worth it.) She's entirely bewildered after three years bouncing in and out of the shelter, then dragged 22 hours in a car. The other 2 are so bonded. She's old, arthritic, and has heartworms. But perfect😍

Integrating a new dog into the pack isn't for the faint of heart. Especially when they are all big pitties. Poor Salsa - 9 years old, past three in a shelter in Florida - was transported 14 hours today to us. We'll make it work because we never give up on a pup after we adopt them. ❤️
