McKinsey Big Heart!

Kinsey has such a kind heart. She is always rooting for the under dog. She accepts everyone for who they are. She loves animals. Really loves them. Her dream in life is to own a pet store that is also an animal shelter that never kills the animals. She is a Vegan 
(which means she eats no animal bi-products of any kind)

Last night when she came home I heard her come in the door and I could hear these noises that sounded like a horse walking around. Well almost.

This is what she brought home.


I honestly don't know what kind of dog it is. I just know it is huge. 
I think it is a St. Bernard/Lab mix. 

Kinseys found it in the street and it was almost hit by a car. It had no tags. 
Kinsey and her friends spent half the night looking for it's home.  

With no luck.

She just couldn't let it be alone and cold all night. And what if it got hit by a car. These were all the things she told me when I came upstairs last night to see what all the noise was.

We opted to tell Neil about her friend this morning. He was not too happy but he gave her four days to find it's owners. 
Kinsey got up first thing this morning and made signs and put them up every where. 
She is determined to find his home. 

The dog is sweet and loving and old. He loved Kinsey instantly as most animals do. 
But we will not be keeping this dog. He could eat Tova as a snack. 
The dogs have done well together but its funny one little dog and one HUGE  dog. 

The pictures don't show how BIG this dog is.

Kinsey you always make life such an interesting adventure. 
I sure love you so much.

McKinsey and her special love for animals

Kinsey loves animals. She has the biggest heart. If we would let her she would have 10 dogs, 10 cats,10 bunnies, 10 lizards and 10 of every other animal. Ok maybe more.

Kinsey and I watched Oprah the other day. It was a show on puppy mills. It was so sad how these animals are treated. This really touched McKinsey and so she wanted to do something to help. She first tried to talk us in to rescuing a dog from the animal shelter. We said no. Last week she adopted a bunny and she already has a dog (Tova-he's in the picture with Kinsey). We felt like that was enough animals for her to take care of right now.

Kinsey still wanted to do something. Yesterday after school she and a friend went to the animal shelter and volunteered. They walked and bathed every dog and played with the cats. She worked there for at least 5 hours.

I am proud of you Kinsey for trying to make a difference and for having such a big heart. Love ya
