peta's gone over the top, this time

I found this very strange-- Peta comes up with the stupidest reasons to "Go Veg!"

This ad was banned from the 2009 superbowl.

Adoptable Pets

The rescue has quite a few wonderful adoptable pets right now, and so does the local shelters. Here's a few that caught my eye--


From H.E.A.D.S.-

Lacey. No picture yet, but she's a gorgeous dog. Possibly Lab, Setter, Border Collie, or any mix of the three. Jet black with long hair, very slim dog. She's so shy-- she needs a home to call her own! She's only two years old.

Then there's Alli-

She's in desperate need of a foster home. She's still with her surrendering parents. She's very well behaved, a wonderful house dog. But very protective of her owners. No kids, possibly no cats, but other dogs are fine.


Here's Trixie-

Trixie is a wonderful girl with an interesting story. She can't let go of her mothering instincts. She needs a very special home! She's a wonderful dog that gets along very well with kids and other dogs, but we're not sure about cats.

Finally, little JalapeƱo-


Very fun little Chihuahua :) Enough said. He's only 5 lbs, and looks like he was electrocuted with all of that hair like that! Please read his Petfinder page for more info.



Now for some Non-HEADS animals--
Here's a girl that tugs at my heart-strings--

She's so scared, she crawls all the time. They're not even sure whether she's a girl or not! She's at the Brownstown shelter.


Here's a little guy from the Wyandotte Pound--
Chico

He looks like a sweet little guy!


And also from the Wyandotte Pound--
Maddy

They say she's great with kids, and a little over a year old! She sounds like a wonderful girl.


From the Dearborn Shelter--
Martin

They say he's about 12 years old, and a real sweetie!


From the City of Detroit Shelter--
Simone

Interesting looking dog!


From the Monroe County Humane Society--

Niner

They say she was found tied to a tree, abandoned-- her face just breaks my heart.


Rose Petal

This one's for you, Brandy!!!

Rose petal lost her family-- she's adorable!!! She's at the Monroe county humane society.


And finally, from the Monroe county animal control--


Cage A2

Stunning looking dog.


And Finally, an ARchie-Look-alike!
Cage B28

Looks like a big Archie!



That's it for now :)

Scooter

Well, Scooter is doing awesome--

He went and got his stitches out today, from his neuter, and all went very well. Archie went too. And Jordan. He wasn't happy, he had to share the front seat with Archie :)

Anyway, Scooter is looking great-- his hair grew back, his teeth are great (well, what's left of them.), his ears are doing wonderfully, his worms are finally gone, and he 's a MUCH happier dog! His face is all healed up, too. He runs, he plays, and I even saw him pant once or twice! How exciting!

Here he is, happy as a clam :)



And with Gina--


I hope I can keep him. He's recovered so well, he's a very, very healthy dog now. He'll be around for quite some time, I believe.

Now if only I could find a way to go get those pit bulls... :)
