Rescuing Carmel
On a bitter cold and snowy day, as I was headed to work at the Muskegon Humane Society, I found an abandoned dog in the parking lot. Frightened, freezing, injured, and hiding under a coworkers car was the cutest little puppy. My heart hurt knowing that someone out there could leave her like this. I got down on my hands and knees in a foot of snow and spent 10 minutes trying to coax her out from her hiding spot. When I finally got her to come to me, I scooped her up in my arms and wrapped my jacket around her and took her inside to warm her up.
By the time I got her inside she had melted into my arms. She wouldn’t go to anyone else, or even let them touch her, and I couldn’t put her down. I decided to take her home with me for the night. She spent the majority of the time eating or in my lap. I spent my time cuddling her and giving her kisses. As I was showering her with love I told her “You’re as sweet as carmel and I could just eat you up.” And so Carmel became her name.
The next day I brought her back to the humane society where she got her shots and I filled out the paperwork to officially become her foster parent. Unfortunately, me and my hubby work long hours and Carmel needs a forever home that has someone who can give her more time. However, for now she’s quite content to have all the time I can give her. She is always by my side and underfoot. She’s unsure what to think about my hubby. She’ll take a treat from him, but other than that keeps her distance. One of the things I have to work on with her while she’s with me is her social skills.
She’s making progress every day. She’s getting comfortable in her surroundings and starting to become the playful pup she should be. Her injury is healing and she’s beginning to trust. She is going to make a lucky family a truly wonderful pet, companion, and friend.
It’s Monday morning and somebody didn’t wanna get out of bed! Know anybody else who felt the same way?!

Birdie, Shih Tzu/Poodle mix (8 y/o F) - Available for adoption from @AnimalHaven. Bone given by @caross • thedogist.com/giveadogabone
Gerald is one of the longest residents in the Camden County Animal Shelter in Blackwood, NJ, and it really is beyond time that he got a home of his own.
He’s a laid back pooch, who prefers hanging out and chilling to more rigorous activity. He does like to take walks and play with toys, but he likes napping even more! He’s affectionate and loving, with perfectly polite manners. He’s the ideal older gent!
