I have a new 4 legged companion in my life now

I have a new 4 legged companion in my life, a 4 month old yellow lab puppy and I rescued him today. We were crushing cars and heard something was not right hearing a yelping noise one car. It was a yellow lab puppy someone put him in the with me finding them. I said call the police and luckily it was caught in the cameras, dumped in 9:00 last night. Found whom did it and was arrested for animal cruelty. I decided to keep him and took him to the vet getting checked out. Everything looked good and named him Gabe. So far Gabe is doing well adapting to my home. I had one before that I had to put down in November that was 12 years old.
 
Congratulations on your new friend, and thank you so much for being so kind and wonderful to rescue him :)
Dogs are the best. I have a rescue dog too.
 
Very sad. Then just tonight I saw a news story about a woman who tried to get her dog onto a flight at the airport and the dog didn't meet the requirements as a therapy/support dog. The woman just stormed off, leaving the dog tethered to a counter.

The police were able to catch her as she tried to leave the airport, charging her with animal cruelty. Hopefully the dog will have a new home soon. What is wrong with such people ?
 
Ugh... tetrapods...!

Congratulations. Rescues seem to be much more appreciative than bred dogs. One time walking in the desert I found 4 puppies, about 2 weeks, covered with ticks, by the side of the road. I put hem in a box, gave them water, and took them to a shelter. I could not keep one at the time, but the attendant assured me they would have no trouble adopting them. They were just dumped out there to die. It makes my blood boil every time I think about it.
