Who rescued who?

A little over a week ago, after a emotionally crushing break-up with my best friend, I decided to adopt a new dog, Paisley. My previous dog, Neo, died in May and I missed being someone's Mama. And really, what better time to adopt than when I needed some TLC probably as much as she did. So I found 'Cosmo' online, adopted her, and named her Paisley.

She is so sweet, and always so happy to see me. She loves to run with me and ride in my truck with the windows down.

The only thing that bothers me is knowing that there are hundreds, probably thousands, more dogs just like my girl sitting in shelters and waiting for a 'forever home'. If some of these animals could talk, they'd have incredible stories to tell, I am sure.

Unfortunately, there's no way for me to adopt all the dogs I'd like to, so myself & a friend of mine are going to the animal shelter tomorrow to volunteer our time. I'm very excited, and a little nervous. I've been asked to take some pictures and I really just want to help out wherever it's needed. Hopefully this time tomorrow I'll have some photos to share of mine & Tiffany's adventure! ;)
