Was up on the hiline this weekend taking a stab and getting the boy a deer on the last day of the season.
Went north across the river to get a snack and fuel up. At the gas station, a dog follows me back to my truck and tries to hop in with me. Little pup about 2 months old. Typical skinny with a huge belly.
Just couldn't leave him there. So long trip home with him. Puked in the truck 3 or 4 times. Dog absolutely reaked of death. Someone had fed him raw rotten meat.
First vet checkup and shots today. Another round in a couple weeks.
Got to start working on finding him a good home now. Absolutely great pup. Follows you anywhere/everywhere. Just wants some attention and a master. Going to make someone a great dog.

That was really kind of you to take him on. I hope you find the perfect home for the pup!!

We had friends who wanted a rescue dog. They found Franklin in about the same situation and he was the best damn dog anyone ever had. My god that dog wanted to please so badly. He ended up with seizures and had to be put down when the medicine wouldn't help any longer. What a great dog. Thanks for reminding me of him.

Go drop him off at Sam's place, he loves him a rez dog! Damn right, had 3 of 'em waking me up this morning! Good on you Tarkio for saving that pup. I see the neglect on a daily basis so have become a little numb to it all but it still bothers me. And over the years instead of buying Christmas gifts my wife and I donate a little money to a local rescue that is seriously legit. Wolf Point Pound Puppies is the name of the group, we donate direct but they may have a facebook page for donations if any of you dog lovers are so inclined. They have saved literally hundreds of dogs and cats.

They have saved literally hundreds of dogs and cats. I do the same down here on the crow. Freckles and Tomcat Rescue is mostly a 1-woman outfit. Has saved hundreds if not more dogs over the years. She has a group that helps her out regularly. I believe she just got her official status as a 501c3 outfit recently. I get the immune part.I always try to pack some extra food with me to feed dogs I come across. And every so often I run across 1 that I scoop up and take to Freckles and Tomcat. I giver her some money now and then. Supplies etc that I can. Last dog I got was a pup I watched hanging around a couple people looking for a handout. Guy was standing there smoking. He reached down with his hand like he was going to feed the dog. Promptly touched its nose with his lit cigarette. Couldn't quite ignore that one.

Jim and Tarkio, shame we can't cull some of these two legged creatures. Back to a lighter note, our little chihuahua is growing like a weed! ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/e78/montanasam/20221129_171240.jpg)

That would get my Irish up. Grown man put a lit cigarette to a dogs nose in my vicinity would end up with a broken arm. IDGAF how big he was, I'd well pipe him into a more civilized frame of mind. F'n trash...
