THE PUP THAT STOLE MY HEART!

Today I went to the East Valley Animal Shelter in Van Nuys.  I had read on their website that they were in need of old blankets, towels, and newspapers (amongst other things).  I did a quick check in the linen closet and found some blankets and towels that I could easily part with. I also grabbed a slew of newspapers (which we usually just throw into the recycling bin).  I then did a quick knock on my neighbors doors to see if they had any items that the shelter was in need of (many of them did).   I even inspired my Mom to meet me at the animal shelter with her items.  I thought that was the good deed…donating easily attainable things that the shelter needed.

Then I fell in love.

I named him “Chester”, and more than anything I wanted to be his new Mommy.  I knew realistically that I didn’t have the space that he would need to give him the full, happy doggie life he deserves, but I am now on a mission to find him a good, loving home.  Check out the video:

As you can see there are so many animals at shelters that need loving homes.  My heart aches when I think of those poor helpless animals.  If  you are thinking of getting a pet, please think of rescuing one from a shelter.  They need your love.  They’ve really got no one else.
