Momma here. maybe its just me, but sometimes I look at the photo's of the horrible condition that some our hounds are found in and it just destroys me. Sometimes I can't look. Weak at heart, weak somewhere in there I know, I feel ashamed to admit that. Last night I went to Beckie/Bess?? website at <A href="http://www.droopybassetrescue.com">www.droopybassetrescue.com</A> and oh my, the pictures of this houndette ripped my heart out. I told myself, we have to turn the negative into a positive here-I could not stop the tears, but I thought, you know, this one has the will to live. Just like Elder Clara, there was still a fight left in that bag of bones to continue, to make it, the battle she must of had is one no animal should have to face. I know she is one in way too many that this happens to, especially the seniors, especially now in these economic times. <br>
I look at the pictures and wonder what she must think, to be clean, to have food, to be warm. Makes us all step back and think.<br>
To me this is the blessing of rescues. And the will to live.<br>
