SPUDS***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com SPUDS' STORY--SPUDS LOST HIS HOME BECAUSE HE WASN'T "PERFECT". A HEARTBREAKING STORY!! WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ONE OF THE HIGHEST SOUTHERN KILL SHELTERS AND WHAT SHE TOLD US BROKE OUR HEART. SHE TOLD US THE MOST ADORABLE TINY LITTLE "POCKET" BEAGLE NAMED SPUDS WAS JUST SURRENDERED TO HER SHELTER. SHE LEARNED THAT SPUDS HAD BEEN A PART OF A FAMILY WITH THREE CHILDREN SINCE HE WAS A TINY TINY LITTLE FELLOW. THE MOTHER WASN'T SURE WHAT HAPPENED BUT ONE DAY THE CHILDREN WERE PLAYING WITH SPUDS, AND HIS EYE WAS HURT, WE'RE NOT SURE IF BY ACCIDENT ONE OF THE CHILDREN HIT HIS EYE WITH A TOY BUT SPUDS LOST THE VISION IN HIS EYE. HE SEES GREAT WITH HIS OTHER EYE, IT HASN'T SLOWED HIM DOWN AT ALL, HE LOVES TO PLAY, WILL CHASE HIS BALL, COME WHEN CALLED BUT THE MOTHER SAID THAT ONCE HE LOST HIS EYE THE CHILDREN STOPPED PLAYING WITH HIM!!. INSTEAD OF BEING WITH THE CHILDREN THAT HE ADORED SPUDS BEGAN TO SPEND LONG DAYS SITTING ALONE IN HIS BACK YARD, THE CHILDREN NEVER PLAYED WITH HIM!!! FINALLY THE MON & DAD KNEW THAT THIS WASN'T THE LIFE FOR SUCH A HAPPY AND LOVING LITTLE FELLOW SO THEY BROUGHT HIM TO THE SHELTER HOPING THAT THE DIRECTOR COULD FIND HIM A BETTER HOME WHERE HE WOULD BE A CHERISHED FAMILY MEMBER. "HE IS THE SWEETEST AND HAPPIEST LITTLE FELLOW, HE ADORES EVERYONE HE MEETS AND ALL DOGS JUST HIS BEST FRIEND BUT BECAUSE HE ONLY HAS ONE EYE HE IS BEING PASSED OVER. EVERYDAY WHEN FOLKS COME TO THE SHELTER SPUDS DOES EVERYTHING RIGHT, HE SITS AT THE FRONT OF HIS KENNED TAIL WAGGING, TURNING HIS LITTLE HEAD TO ONE SIDE AS IF HE'S SAYING "PLEASE PICK ME PLEASE" BUT DAY AFTER DAY FOLKS JUST PASS HIM BY GOING INSTEAD FOR THE 'PERFECT" DOG OR PUPPY!" THIS IS WHAT THE SHELTER DIRECTOR TOLD US. SHE CALLED TELLING US THE SITUATION FOR SPUDS WAS URGENT AND ASKING IF WE COULD HELP. WHEN HE HEARD THIS HEARTBREAKING STORY WE COULDN'T GET TO SPUDS FAST ENOUGH AND TO US THIS LITTLE FELLOW WITH THE KIND AND LOVING HEART IS "PERFECT".
