An Animal Lover's Joy
Uploaded: December 23, 2005
Remember Gloria? The one feeding the horses with the chickens following her? Well, she went down to Lousiana for 3 weeks and worked in one of the shelters that they were bringing the animals to. She was in the heart of the war zone, guards protecting the shelter, etc. She fell in love with a little female Pit Bull who was crippled from malnutrition. The poor thing was so thin and Gloria took special care to nurse her while she was there. When she came home, she brought back a rabbit and a cat but hoped the dog would get adopted. They called to tell her no such luck, would she take her. Not only that but she had just given birth to 9 puppies. You guessed it! Gloria now has puppies looking for loving homes. Any interest, email me.

I forgot to mention that the puppies can be shipped. Also that the non-profit is paying for the shots and neutering.Pat Gamwell December 23, 2005

I know they look like they are sitting like little angels but this group is very active. I first told Gloria that I wanted to try to shoot all 9 at once but there were only the two of us so we did them one at a time and then I merged them together.Kay E. Mahoney December 23, 2005

What a crew Janet! I'd imaging to do a group shot you'd need a very wide angle lens! Hehe... they look so festive with the bows... great story, hope they all find loving homes. #2228983Stephen Zacker December 28, 2005
