After having survived yet another monumental house cleaning; filling in the casket sized holes in the back yard made by errant dogs; "furminating" Kizzy (got a whole 'nother dog off of her), I had five minutes to sit in front of the computer and drop an idea on y'all.....SANCTUARY! Think about it...a SANCTUARY for our beloved GSD's...the ones society has forgotten...the ones that are surrendered at the "shelters"; quaking and scared and wondering why their owners leave without them...the ones found wandering the streets, perhaps preganant or maybe with newborn pups to feed (remember Kelsey and her 7 pups?)...the seniors who have given their owners the best years of their lives, only to be deposited like so much trash because they have nothing left to give...those tragic old souls who should be living out the rest of their lives in front of a fire; not in a noisy shelter awaiting a horrendous fate. If Leo Grillo can do it, why not us? Would it be a monumental effort?? Certainly! Is it impossible? I prefer to say NOTHING is impossible if you want it bad enough.
