If you email a rescue organization, do they ever write back?

Gerr rescued a couple of pitty puppies on Sunday and brought them home. We lucked out and found a home for one. I emailed Rocket Dog Rescue, BADRAP rescue and three other rescues and have not heard a WORD! it's been a couple of days, I get it that these places may get a ton of emails, but since they don't have a phone number I'm confused how they're supposed to help anyone.

People: I'm at my wits end. I can't sleep with the howling and the screeching and then the peeing on the bed because we can't keep her locked in a crate all night with neighbors right below our house....This pup needs to find a home ASAP.

Yet why aren't these rescues answering their emails? That's the question i keep coming back to. How does a person like me get help???? Do i drop her off at the Humane Society and pray that she'll be fine? I saw that they have a couple of pitty pups on their website and that makes me happy, but i just don't get it...I thought these places helped people like us. People who do the right thing? I don't want to make any money from this, I want a happy home with GOOD people to take care of her....I feel like everything I've believed in about these rescues has just crumbled.

Makes you second guess helping an animal if you can't even get any help from these places. But that's just not me. I can't second guess helping an animal. I just have to. It's an instinct i carry with me. Animal in danger means I need to help it. But now what? It's so sad that not one has called. Not one of them cared enough to call.

I'm hoping in a blink of an eye it all changes and I have all 5 rescues calling me to at the least give me more information as to what I SHOULD DO! Who I can trust? If i can't trust these rescues in our area to call back about this matter, what CAN i trust them with? Are they all out for fame and money? is that all they care about?

I just want to find a home for this little pup. One that I will feel won't mistreat her, will love her unconditionally, will train her well and maybe exceed the expectations of those people who are anti pits. She's so young, the time to train is now....

i'm bummed.





P.S. I did get a call from A.R.F-and they gave me a list of rescues and places that can help me. Maybe things are looking up...

Buh Bye Shower.

We will not have a shower for a couple of days, but a new shower will take it's place in the end!  Sort of exciting....I am not happy about not being able to shower tomorrow morning though. Wish they could put a bathtub in there instead, but our bathroom is the size of a smaller walk-in closet so that's not gonna happen.
When we were looking to move out of our studio apartment (long story short-the Gerr got us a puppy named Bella and we were living in an apartment that only allowed cats. Bella ran up to our landlord and we were told we had to either get rid of the dog or move. She was very very nice about it actually.) we were in a hurry because I literally cried every day Bella was not with me. Gerr found this place and it had a front yard, big kitchen, two bedrooms etc..and we said we'd take it; we were in a hurry. As we moved in we realized the tiny bathroom was painted shit brown and there were NO closets. We've pretty much made do with the inadequacies of the house; we traded closets and a bathtub for our Bella 24 hours a day.
I think the new shower will keep me happy for the remainder of the time we stay in our house. It's something new and I like new things.

Let's look at some cool bathrooms....let us all dream together...shall we?

I like this a lot. you get a view while you soak in your victorian bathroom....mmmm...imagine: it's pouring rain outside and so gray it's almost black, thunder and lightning....oooh...candles everywhere...yes yes...i like this....

I like the shower design. I think that's totally neat.

Zoinks!! that's awesome. i truly love this idea. and think about cleaning it? just spray everything down...ok...me like this one a lot.

 i love the curtain here. the tub is awesome too.

while i was on my search for awesome bathrooms i also found some that I had questions about....
i don't think i could pee in here without a massive panic attack. 
what's with the plates? am I eating in the bathroom now? or is this for a studio apartment? 
Anyone, besides me, notice the crappy tv on the stand with wheels? Can we say hazard?
what is this? Darth Vader Shower?
why are there chairs in these pictures? will i have an audience while i bathe? or will i be so tired after bathing that i will be required to sit often?
no i don't want this in my bathroom. 
 i live in California. That lid would fall right on top of me during an earthquake while i was bathing and BAM, death...do i look like a pod person? that would be a no....

alright that's all the brilliance i have in me today. Enjoy your friday and the weekend!!

Perfect head bobbing song at 9 am

"I love it when you call me Big Poppa...."

totally.

bobbin.

my.

head.

Shoedazzle has the August shoe choices ready and i think the boots are a perfect price. just FYI for you shoe addicts....and uh...no I didn't buy any...

let's look at some heavenly closets....I need a closet.

this would be ideal. Shelterness.com has 50 fabulous ideas of which I think this is the basic layout i would love. it would be a whole other room of my clothes, shoes, makeup, hair station, jewelry clips...yeah i could totally live with this.


I would love a closet for just my shoes. My problem with this picture is i have shoes of all sizes. 5 pairs of boots need their own shelf you know.

yes yes...i will need more space......

sigh...so pretty.

by the way..i also need to redo my pantry.
this would be perfect. 

let's all dream about this until tomorrow....
have a great day!
