Good news!
My German Shepherd love of my life,
Clapton, is going to have a safe place to go. (Living with me being homeless is NOT a safe place.) A lovely woman named
Jodi is going to take him to live with her (and her husband and other
dogs) in Kentucky. He will be loved.
My family has bred German Shepherds
since the1970's. I've been involved in obedience and conformation,
and have done breed rescue with Last Hope Safe Haven for German
Shepherd Dogs. I've had horses, cats, and particularly dogs for all
of my life, but Clapton is special.
For so long, I wanted a solid black male
puppy. I have never had a puppy of my own. Whelped and raised plenty
while growing up, but I was never actually allowed to have a dog of
my own when I lived at home. But we did have plenty of dogs (and cats
and horses) to love, and I loved every single one.
When Mom brought me the little black
ball of fuzz that was Clapton, I was already disabled, but the
doctors were telling me at the time that there was a test that would
determine what I had, and that whatever it was was definitely
fixable. I chose to be optimistic and believe them, but they were
proved to be wrong a short month later. But I still had my sweet
puppy to keep me company, and as he grew and my health worsened, he
learned to do little things for me. He would gently pick up whatever
I dropped, (bending is painful) and hand it to me; lie flat next to
me to keep me warm when I was cold and the pain was bad; stand
“steady' so I could pull myself upright after falling; give me
kisses and warm, loving looks when I needed them most...
I'm so happy that you're going to a
good place, my love pup.
I'm just going to miss you so.
Due to requests, I'm adding a donation button to these particular posts for folks that wish to donate. Thank you for all your help!
