Sadie Saves

“Hi everyone, it’s me Sadie, and you know what today is if you are a regular follower on my blog – it’s the day I help get the word out about my animal friends who are hoping to be adopted.  On Mother’s Day, May 10, 2015 I featured my sweet friend Bronwyn who is still waiting to find a place to call home. Bronwyn, is  a 2 1/2 year old female boxer mix. She is heartworm positive so is currently undergoing treatment. Bronwyn would prefer ruling the roost with no fellow canines to challenge her role as Queen. She is a sweet friendly girl with lots of energy and love to give! She would do best in a home with no children as they can make her nervous. Currently, Bronwyn is available for adoption through the Second Chance Animal Shelter in East Brookfield, Massachusetts. Please share her picture and story with your family, friends and social networks. Together I’m sure we will find her a ‘forever family.’ I thank you for your help.  Love, Sadie”

Sadie, the fictional talking dog, and her fictional family of intelligent canines are based on real-life rescued Chihuahuas that my wife and I have adopted over the years. Anybody who lives with a dog realizes how smart they really are and even if they can't speak Doglish, there's certainly love and intelligence glittering in their beautiful eyes.  So many animals, dogs and cats, are discarded or euthanized every year because there's simply too many of them out there and not enough loving human homes to adopt them.  Dogs and cats totally rely on the humans that domesticated them to survive. I hope through Sadie's stories that more people will come to appreciate the wonder and responsibility we have to welcome these animals into our lives or at least help keep the unwanted population lower by spay and neuter. Sadie Saves is serious business spoken by a cute fictional character.  Just sit back and imagine if there truly was a spokesdog for all dog- and cat-kind.  Wouldn't you rather save an animal at a shelter that's probably looking at a shortened lifespan if it isn't adopted? Who knows, maybe the next adopted dog will turn out to be the real-life speaking Sadie.
