I love it! Great use of the word Skooshy! I wish there were more people like you! I volunteer at a no-kill shelter for two hours every week. I walk dogs for several miles which is a win win for me. My phone sits in my pocket and I just take the dog out pet it, love it, and check out different neighborhoods. I'll pick up a bag of cans for recycling, while we are walking (always thinking money)and have found a few dollars lying on the sidewalk. My daytime job donates five hundred dollars to this shelter once I have logged in fifty hours so it is a win-win-win proposition. I fall in love with a different dog every week and always seem to have a few extra doggie treats left over in my pocket for my own two dogs at home (two Golden Retrievers). I am amazed at how many wonderful dogs do not get adopted right away.

That's wonderful for you, the dogs and the shelter! It sounds like you work for a pretty great company.  :thumbsup:

good luck. I rescued 2 older cats about 3 years ago. 1 still acts like a kitten and runs and plays like crazy.

Good luck on your adoption of your new dog. 

My pets are usually rescues .. they usually find me most of the time.

This week has taken FOREVER. But it looks like I'll be picking up my new floof tonight! The rescue asked if we could pick her up early, because they have to travel several hours tomorrow to rescue six more dogs. We already have a crate and a few toys. I am going shopping in a bit to pick up some food, a leash and collar. Aww, I can't wait to get her home and LOVE her!  :heart: :heart: :heart:

That's great!  I used to foster for a Golden Retriever rescue.  Hope it goes well for you!
