ROAD TRIP EXPERIENCE.............PART 3 Well this morning i woke up in my own bed for the first time in 14 days :) some of you would be thinking yes but thats no big deal we all go on holidays etc then come back and miss our own beds........... But the difference is i laid in my own bed snuggled up with my little Jesus and Ozzie my cat and thought about all the dogs that have never had that experience :( never having a bed to call their own or a human to cuddle, dogs that seek out a warm or dry place for the night then move on hoping to find another the next night and always the fear that they would be killed or starve in the process. I look at my dogs and it breaks my heart knowing that some dogs will never have that, will never know security even in the smallest form and it makes you appreciate all that you have. I left my dogs for the first time in their lives, i was worried sick about them and how they would cope which is ridiculous as they were in their own home in a safe environment with people that cared for them, loved them, fed them and basically pampered them. Yet yesterday when i went just to move my van closer to my back gate so i could unload it better my dogs went mad! They howled. cried and got so distressed because they thought i was leaving them again :( If well loved, well looked after dogs feel like that after such a short time, how do these dogs that are just thrown away and abandoned feel? Can you fathom the rejection? That was my wake up call this morning :( Every living creature deserves the right to a good life, to security and a life time commitment. A dog is forever not till you get fed up with it or its too expensive or not cute enough anymore and thats the reality of the dogs in Romania they are not considered family members the way we consider them. So today, hold your babies close give them a big hug from me and think about how you can help to make the lives of Romanian dogs better. We cant all adopt and bring them into our homes but we can distance adopt, we can share aid, we can donate, we can support the people that do so much for these animals both emotionally and physically. It takes a great toll on rescuers seeing the horror everyday but knowing they have people that care for them, are thinking about them everyday makes a difference. This road trip experience is written with Alma Ady in my heart
