blog 33

So today I’m going to tell you all the story of how I came to have my dog Nati. First off I need to clarify that Nati is after the end of Cincinnati and not to be confused with Nati light the beer. She lives with me here at school and I don’t think that my college career would be the same if she hadn’t come into my life last year. I have a tendency to rescue animals, my friends call me Dr. Dolittle, birds, squirrels, rabbits, frogs, snakes, and cats have all been in and out of my life for years. I’m the type of person who instead of killing a bug will get it into a cup and let it outside. So anyways we were doing community service at the Franklin County Dog shelter (which if you have a chance to rescue a dog get them out of there it is an awful place!) and this young man came in saying he needed to drop off a dog that had been wandering around his neighborhood for weeks. He gave the description and then as he was about to go get the dog he asked what their policy was on Pitts. Well the lady told him the dog would have 48 hours and then would be euthanized. Now I didn’t want a dog, and so when he stopped and looked at me on the way out and asked me if I did my first response was no, then he informed me that it was just a puppy and I of course got suckered in. I have had her ever since.

  3. She is just about a year old now. And I know the feeling but be careful when getting a dog I got lucky and she was really smart and housetrained very quickly. Plus not many parents are thrilled when you get a dog, mine definately weren't but now my Mom loves her!
