When I was eight years old my parents, brother and I moved from Israel to America. We had two dogs who were not allowed to come with us. With a broken heart, my dad drove them to the pound.
As soon as he arrived he promptly turned around. He couldnt do it. So, he drove to a family-friends house and pleaded with them to take our dogs in. After quite literally picking my begging father off of the ground, they agreed. My dad feared that Mookie (a mutt we rescued from our neighbor who was beating...

Hubs and I are both dog people. When we met, we each had a dog. Our wedding gift from my dad was a puppy. Then, we had a terrible year, and without going into detail (because it's heartbreaking for both of us), we lost all three of those dogs within a year's time. I was lost without them. I'd come home from work and immediately change clothes to go out and feed the dogs. Then, I would realize I had no dogs to feed, and I would break down in tears, almost every day. At the time, we had just...

I was sorting, packing, cleaning, stressing, and going insane trying to prepare for and move 750 miles away to a new state. Life was as busy and stressful as it could possibly be... and then, I received a phone call from my dad's girlfriend (I called her 'Mama' - that's another story for another day). When I answered the phone, I heard, "Misty, there's a lady here telling me that she needs to find a home for a 10 week old puppy and..." I interrupted, "No way! There's absolutely no way I could...
