Ace and I walked through a playground/park area where a bunch of elementary kids were having a last day of school fun day. And boy were they having fun! Water games, food, tons of screaming and laughing. And then they saw a dog! Ace actually kept it together pretty well when seven or eight boys and girls came running up to him, followed by another group. He was wearing his Gentle Leader that day, and I told him to sit. I also told the kids not to pet him until he was sitting. They wanted to know why, and I said because he is training to have good behavior. They also asked why he was wearing something on his nose, and I said it’s so he doesn’t pull. Ace loves attention and he loves kids. Click here to see all my 30-day challenge posts.
If you’d like more information about Matty, email me at Lindsay@thatmutt.com Not even 48 hours after I’d written a post about how I don’t allow my dog in the bed, I left the room to go brush my teeth. Less than five minutes later, I found this: Oh, sorry to disturb you two. |
This is Matty. I have never featured a homeless pet before, mostly because I know there are thousands out there. How could it do any good if I post a cute photo and notes about just one dog? I’m not sure if this will help Matty or not. What I do know is this: There are hundreds of homeless pets just like him in your area. You can help those dogs by adopting, fostering, volunteering or donating. Just because you can’t adopt another pet doesn’t mean you can’t do something to help.
