Very cool Gnat! The puppy is adorable!
The best dog we ever had was a mutt that came from a farm. She was the runt of the litter and she was malnourished. The farmer could've cared less if the pups lived or died. My mom was driving with her friend one day and saw a sign on the road that said, "Free puppies", so they stopped to have a look. When my mom saw the runt, it broke her heart, so she brought the pup home. My dad was pissed because the last thing he wanted was a dog in the new house, but she eventually wormed her way into his heart. She quickly became one of the family.
I too am such a sucker for animals. I can't go in pet stores or to shelters. I feel bad because I can't adopt them all. When I see those rescue shows on TV, tears fill my eyes as well as piss me off that people can be just so cruel.
Stray animals always seem to find me too. I think they take one look at me and think, "Yeah... She's a sucker. If I just sit here and look sad and hungry, she'll take care of me." I just don't have the heart to ignore them or chase them away.
