Thanks to the ASPCA and Badrap, the 50 dogs confiscated from Vick will have a second chance at life.

Only ONE dog failed to pass the stringent temperament test. One. The others will have a chance at a long-lasting life!! They will either be adopted out or go to a sanctuary. I'm so happy, it's unbelievable.

When I was at Sac County, any pit bull confiscated for "dog fighting" was killed. It wasn't euthanasia, it was murder. These are often good, sound dogs who can go onto be awesome representatives of the breed. I hope this inspires other shelters to offer these dogs a second chance in appropriate homes. After all they've been through, they deserve it.

 OMG PEOPLES!!!! I paid off my library fine! Go me times twenty five. The librarian didn't bat an eyelash at my $8.20 fee, so that might mean I'm not as bad as I thought I was.

I purchased another plant. This brings my apartment's grand total to THREE, yes THREE, greenie goodnesses. Their names are Lock, Load and Flea. With the exception of Lock (who was a gift from my parents), Load & Flea are pity purchases from the supermarket...they really need to not sell plants.

Most importantly (but in third position, oddly), Mina went to the vet! She did super awesome with not whining, growling or glaring at other dogs. At one point, there were four dogs in the lobby and while Mina was interested, she was easily distracted with c-o-o-k-i-e-s. She weighed in at 38 pounds, which the vet said is actually an okay weight but would like to see her at 40. Mina's thyroid medicine was reduced (apparently it can cause weight loss) and the vet said I could definitely switch to a generic (is cheaper!) Mina was growled at by a Bichon and she was all wtf and I was all wtf (and the owners thought it was cute, yuck).

That is all.
