So anyone who reads our blog, probably already knows that we live at a dog shelter. But in case you didn't know... now you do!
Most people are very curious how this works... so I figured I'd share some fun details.
We have over 100 dogs on any given day, and sometimes up to 150. We usually get new van loads of dogs 2-3 times a week. They usually come from local animal control organizations and high kill shelters. Most of the dogs are strays, abandoned, or owner surrenders. We also have cats here, several hundred, in fact.
There is an apartment above the shelter, and also a house on the shelter grounds. We moved into the apartment in October of 2010, and then over to the house in June of 2011. The best part is, we get to live rent free in exchange for helping with chores!
That's our life now. Not what we had imagined or anticipated, and probably not what we would have chosen or planned had we been in charge. But I'm sure glad we're not calling the shots. I love our little life. It's quirky, it sometimes smells like dog poop. We have more space than we know what to do with. Oh, and our favorite part, is that we found our little Virginia Peanut! She is our baby, and she loves us back :)
