A rescue wanted him and I know in my heart they wanted him out of the unloving and impersonal shelter so that if his time is near, at least he may cross over with a caring person and the warmth of a hand nearby. Not the cold unforgiving place that he was pulled from. I have no idea as to why he was dropped off at the shelter by his so called family, I only hope that they never get another dog and repeat this again. As for Captain (his name) he is in a better place now and I know shortly he will be in a the best of all places soon. Now he can crossover in dignity and know for a short time he was loved.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-876 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/032714-1\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/09\/032714-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/032714-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/helpingouranimalfriends.rocks\/animalresourcesinc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/09\/032714-2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I went way out in the desert and picked up this very blind, very old and very thin but very sweet dog from a shelter that was about to put him down.
