My name is SID(THROWN AWAY! WHAT A STORY!!

SID***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com SID'S STORY--HE DESERVED BETTER!!! WE RECEIVED AN URGENT CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ONE OF THE HIGHEST KILL SHELTERS IN THE SOUTH LETTING US KNOW THAT SID'S FAMILY HAD JUST SURRENDERED SID TO HER SHELTER. HIS OWNER TIED SID TO A POLE, SIGNED THE NECESSARY PAPERS GIVING SID UP, AND ON THE LINE ON THE PAPERWORK WHERE IT ASKED "WHY ARE YOU GIVING YOUR PET AWAY?" THERE WAS NOTHING WRITTEN, IT WAS BLANK!!!. THE DIRECTOR ASK SID'S OWNER WHY HE COULDN'T KEEP SID AND HIS ONLY REPLY "I DON'T WANT A DOG, WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR HIM"!!! THE FAMILY TURNED NEVER SAYING A WORD TO SID OR GIVING HIM A PAT AND WALKED AWAY!!!. THE DIRECTOR SAID SID STOOD AT THE SHELTER WINDOW WATCHING AS HIS FAMILY DROVE AWAY. HIS TAIL WAS WAGGING AS IF HE KNEW THEY WAS COMING BACK FOR HIM--THEY DIDN'T!!! IT IS UNIMAGINABLE TO US HOW SOMEONE COULD BE SO HEARTLESS AS TO JUST THROW A TRUE COMPANION LIKE SID AWAY. "HE IS ONE OF THE SWEETEST MOST LOVING PUPS I HAVE SEEN. HE IS SO CONFUSED AND DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHERE HE IS BUT MOST OF ALL WHY" CAN YOU HELP HIM? WAS THE DIRECTOR'S PLEA TO US. WITHOUT EVEN SEEING A PICTURE BUT JUST HEARING WHAT A WONDERFUL FELLOW SID WAS WE WERE ON OUR WAY WITHIN MINUTES TO HELP. WHEN WE FIRST SAW SID IN THE SHELTER WE SPOKE SOFTLY TO HIM, GAVE HIM A PAT, HE LIFTED HIS GORGEOUS HEAD AND LOOKED AT US WITH EYES THAT WILL MELT YOUR HEART, HIS TAIL SLOWLY STARTED TO WAG, THEY DO KNOW WHEN YOU ARE THERE TO HELP!!!. SID LEFT THE HIGH KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, EYES SPARKLING, TAIL WAGGING AND WHEN OUR DIRECTOR PUT HIM IN HER CAR HE LICKED HER HAND MAYBE THIS WAS HIS WAY OF THANKING HER FOR HELPING HIM. *** SID--GENTLE--CALM--LOVING--A TREASURE" SID IS A BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL, 18 MO.
