BENJAMIN CHAPTER 2

We couldn't and wouldn't dump him at the gas station, it felt cruel and heartless, even if he had only been away from it for a day. I cried like never before, and Eric tried finding a foster home on his phone like a madman. Back at the gas station, the owner told us there was an abandoned cage / kennel, we could use it. It wasn't bad, and Eric said something really true today that I felt when I was sitting with Ben:
"WE are suffering more than Ben."
That is so true. Is it therefore we put animals to sleep too quickly?

The pictures cannot describe his skin condition. AND the pictures cannot describe his happiness. All three: me, Jacky and Eric just love this little guy so much. He has a big spirit in his 9 month old body...and, he has taught us a lot about human's as well.


He doesn't get aggressive when you feed him, he waits. This little guy is worth a big Amore life.

RUFFUS SCRATCH





Going home after we delivered the fridge, we had to stop for gas. From my side window I saw a grey short hair medium size dog coming running. I of course jumped out of the car since I could sense something was not right. I got the dog food out of the car and approached him, he was so happy to see me. He had a terrible skin problem that I have only seen once before and that was in Bosnia. It itched so badly that he wanted me to scratch him.

My heart turned from joy into sadness. I had to leave him there. I had no cage in the car, and I was leaving for Sweden. I pray and hope he will be there in a couple of days when I return, with a cage and able to bring him in to a vet clinic.

I do wish we had a rehab clinic.
