Hugabull: Loki's Christmas Wish!

[Grete_J]

So, I'm sure a few people have noticed that I'm no longer breeding Axolotl's. I've prioritized what's important to me and lately I've started volunteering with the Hugabull Rescue. I attend the Breakfast Club dog training every Sunday and have heard some pretty heart wrenching stories about the pups that they've rescued. Gambit's "treat dispenser" is fur mom to Beef & Beans (aka the Burrito Twins), both rescue's. Beefcake was found by a snowmobiler, tied up to a post with a sign that read "My family moved to Calgary, I'm free" in the middle of winter. Coco Bean was covered in chainsaw blade cuts all over her body. Both of them has some pretty serious mange. Now, they're with Arlene, who's treat dispensing shows with them

Crikey, they look like ticking time bombs, you better put personal liability insurance on that list.

What, in case they lick somebody to death? Sounds uninsurable to me.

I'd like to have 5 minutes with the *@#&@! who would use a chainsaw on a dog. Five minutes, and some hydrochloric acid.


Grete, I may have some stuff that our dog has outgrown, I'll take a look.

Can we not do this? I don't really want to get into a BSL war here and if you don't agree with shelter dogs that require basic needs, don't post negative comments.

Adrian, I'm so sorry for the loss of your furry family member. I'm sure that she lived a wonderful life with you.

I have some of those items on the list that I can spare. I'm surprised that kennels/carriers aren't on there because I think that I might have a couple in my garage.

Let me go through my doggie stuffs. I saved some of my dog item after we put her down for cancer. I don't know why I save them but I guess I just can't throw them away. Now I know you can put some good use for them, I would like to pass them to you.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss as well. I don't even want to think of the day that I have to say goodbye to Gambit.

I spoke with Kristen, the woman who started Loki's Christmas Wish and she's overwhelmed with the generosity the BCA members are showing She thanks everyone who's helping out!
