Thanks to you, Mark, I’ve now been a member of the WSPA for a few months. I’ve resisted until now because I always thought that animal groups were a little whacky. That said, I can’t imagine life without animals and particularly, dogs. Tucker is my latest “best friend”. I am crushed whenever I lose a cherished dog, but I find that, with time, a new friend can help to ease the pain. Here’s to you and all dog lovers everywhere. I’m convinced that there is a special place for those that care for the lowliest among us. God bless dogs.

Hi Mark,
My husband and I are both police officers. We often bring stray dogs and cats to the station to have them picked up by the ASPCA .Often than not they the animals perish and it is a shame. Last year on this date one of our guys brought in a pitbull terrier to the station. They found her walking about the streets with no owner to be found. She was at our station for about 4 1/2 days. she was about 6-8 months old at the time. Usually ASPCA pics them up within 24 hrs but this time there was a big problem. the pound that usually picks them up was under investigation of mistreatment of animals and they had found dozens of dead animals in bags that week. before we were even made aware of this situation, my husband and I brought her home. We named her ( ADAMA) (means = beautiful girl). Adama proved to us the first week she was with us that she was very protective of my two toddlers and we quickly fell in love. She a wonderful dog with such a great personality.

Lola was a rescue dog from Miami. She was about 6 when I adopted her, (i was told she was 3). I have had her 6 years now and she is incredible. She travels with me up and down the east coast and thinks she has 5 houses. She is the queen of my neighborhood. She is incredible.
