Poor little Hopper; so glad the driver was paying attention.
It’s amazing what a difference a good grooming makes. He looks like a totally different dog.

He really does. What luck for Hopper and his new family.

Squeeeeing at the new baby pygmy hippo. I just melt whenever I see one.
Good luck, dear Steve. You’re handsome even without feathers.
I am crying with laughter over dear Eleanor. “Lord love a duck” takes on a whole new meaning. Can’t wait to see what Duckie says about this!

Yes, He does, Deb.
“The nice lady” appears to be a combination of me and The Girl With The Dogs. And I have been beaten with a budgie wing, but I can’t imagine how much a duck wing would hurt.
But I’d like to try.

I’ve sent Mike a picture of Little Duckie beating the snot out of my husband with her wings.
Little Hopper’s story has stayed with me all day. I think there is a Dog Distribution System too. But who could do such an unconscionable thing!? Just leave the dog out if you don’t want him, but to put him in a dumpster? – I hope there is an eternal cycle of dumpster-to-trash-compactor waiting in hell for whoever did this.
On the brighter side – Hopper was so lucky to have been taken by Gabriel and his Mrs. He looks amazing and so happy. Great that such a bad story has such a wonderful ending.

And here’s flap-happy Little Duckie in action!

Fantastic! Duckie, you need an Eleanor now.
