The best kind of tired

I feel tired this morning, but the tired comes from a job well done. From 8 a.m. yesterday until well after 5 p.m. I talked, walked and showed dogs. Old dogs, young dogs, puppy dogs and everything in between. Our cat matchers also did a fabulous job and Latinie, a senior cat pictured here, was the first adoption of the day.

The gulf coast of Florida once again came through to meet and adopt homeless dogs and cats. We were busy from beginning to end but tempers never flared and everyone kept a smile.

Our oldest resident, 13 years old and happy as a puppy, Bear is going home with another labrador from Gulfport in Pinellas County. Several of our youngest residents, 8 week old lab mix puppies went home to loving families and all ages in the middle.

All together we had 25 adoptions. 9 More are scheduled for Monday. That makes 34 animals who have found homes with loving families this weekend.

This is the best kind of tired. Thanks to everyone who came out. If you didn't find just what you were looking for on Saturday, come visit us again next week. We will have more new residents.
