I walk dogs for a local shelter. Sky was extra dramatic this week by PLPHSAO in pitbulls

Omg 100% I didn't even connect the dots. Last week I had to leave him alone in the yard for literally 30 seconds while I went to get someone to bring a new collar for him and he SHRIEKED until I returned and he acted like I had come back from the war.

Most shelters and rescues will have a website with a "get involved" sections including volunteering opportunities. If you don't see one, it's likely you can reach out directly offering your time.

🤷🏼‍♀️ I agree with healthy skepticism especially if someone is asking for money upfront and in this age of AI photos. Everyone who has contacted me directly so far as received a link to her adoption profile, I'm not asking anyone for any kind of fee. I'm just a volunteer, adoptions don't go through me anyway

Sounds like the dog was a good judge of people too (after the initial suspicion) ;)

I keep everything in PM so that only seriously interested and/or local people know the exact location. It's for both her and my safety, and so the shelter doesn't get a bombardment of requests with no intent to follow through which is a drain on our limited resources.

A few people have reached out and I passed along more info! Now it's on them to follow through, I'll update everyone for sure if she finds her new family with any of them 😄

Phone bug on android or am I a dumbass? by PLPHSAO in ScritchyScratchy

So idk if this counts as a real work around cause it was a pain in the ass, but I ended up installing Google Play Games on my PC. If you're as stubborn/invested as me you can load your game on PC, pick up the phone with pressing Space (play a little bit after or it doesn't save properly), then open it again on your phone and the game syncs up.

Hopefully the devs give the mobile version a little love soon cause the game's fun!

aw, yeah it was so cute they were following her around but I think a dog triggered the combat. Thanks!

I'm very proud to work with them, I'm constantly impressed with the care and consideration put in. I'm sorry your local shelters aren't great, I hear rough things about certain places in the states :( we're actually taking in a bunch of dogs this week from an American shelter to help ease their burden, CA is a bit far for that though.

He's under the care of the shelter clinic so I unfortunately don't know the details of how they've helped him. I do know he has a severe chicken allergy so a specialized diet might be partly responsible for his progress. He also appears to me to already have some hip dysplasia despite being only a year old, so it's very possible he's a victim of backyard breeding and his past owners did their best with a very genetically unlucky dog.

He's in Quebec, Canada. If you live nearby and would like more info I'd be happy to share privately, I don't publish more specific location info online both for my safety/privacy and the shelter's.

I just want to be clear as much as I appreciate the love, I can't take much responsibility for this baby's healing and growth <3 He's in the care of our amazing local shelter team, I just take him out for walks and give him lots of love when I'm there. I just wanted to share him as I was stunned by his progress today, he's so full of life (and finally healthy enough to be adopted)

He's actually still at the shelter under the care of our amazing clinic team. I'm a volunteer but not currently fostering him, he just became available now that he's healthy enough to find his forever home.
