What a Good Friday it was

So it's been months now since I lost my first rescue, devastating me. Here it is Good Friday, before Easter and I happen to be off from work. I decide to take a random ride over to Plainfield Humane Society just to see. Little did I know I was about to meet the next special rescue to come into my life, making me laugh and smile again.

I went in with open intensions, no breed or age mattered, I just wanted to see if I could give the next one a home. I walked up and down those aisles of the shelter, painfully looking at all the dogs I couldn't help, as I couldn't take them all. The only "requirement" if you call it that was I needed a dog that could co-exist with other dogs, someone that was used to dogs. This way if I went somewhere I could take them and have them be comfortable in the situation. Most of the dogs unfortunately couldn't co-exist. As I was about to turn around and walk out, one of the volunteers said "what about thunder" I said "who's thunder?"

Thunder is this high energetic pit bull mix around 1 1/2 -2. So I went out back and there he was! Jumping up and down in the kennel so excited to see people. I instantly fell in love with him and wanted to know more. The volunteer let him out and thunder just jumped all over me giving kisses and hugs. I knew in that moment he was going to be my next special one I take him, Mason my first rescue had sent me another earth angel, while he watches over me.

It's been 5 months today and he's just everything from adorable, loyal, hilarious, silly and so much more! You never know when it is the right time to rescue again after loosing a family member, but I am sure glad I walked into that shelter on GOOD FRIDAY, as what a Good Friday it was.

*Side note- Thunder's name was changed to Meiko (meaning brave and strong) I wanted him to have a new name to go along with his new happy life.
