Some of you may remember me talking about the dogs I rescued. A neighbor abandoned 7 dogs (5 were pups). I have had them since about the first 2 pups died of parvo, and I got the third one through it. One of the dogs is a full pit, the mother of the pups is pit/lab, and you can tell the pups have pit in them. Have to be careful about finding a home. All the dogs are young and very sweet (also very smart). The local rescue organization here would not help...told me to take them to the pound (the pound immediately puts down dogs with any pit in them, regardless of disposition).

Finally Brother Wolf in Asheville said they would help me with placement. A few weeks ago, they took 2 of the pups. I still have 3 dogs waiting (plus my own animals). Also...the pups had red mange, so had to get treatment for that.

Between vet bills and food, these dogs are really draining me. My good samaritan thing is costly. They are such sweet dogs, I just want them to have a good home and a good life. (Anyone out there want a dog?)

This is getting so expensive, thought I would ask if anyone would like to contribute anything toward the care of these dogs.

Hate to put this put this out there. Sometines trying to do the right thing is a struggle.

I already have two dogs and a 2 1/2 yr old daughter and recently had to rent my house and move into an apartment because of recent money issues. I might be able to take one though, I'll have to talk to the wifey.

Sounds like too much for you too. Don't think you need another dog at this time.....but nice of you to consider. :)

I'll talk to the wife and try to convince her. I wouldn't mind taking one in. I'll also spread the word for you.

Thanks. They are really good dogs. Susie, the pit (brindle) and Dolly, lab/pit mix, have both been to work with me. Dolly is here now. I work in a facility for adult with developtal disabilities. My cottage has 24 folks who are older. Both dogs do great with them. Lucy is the younger one...about 6 mths old now. susie still less than a year old...and Dolly...maybe 1 1/2.

try craigslist. I had a cat I found on the side of the road. I put an ad on craigslist and the first person that called took it home. I got 8 other calls after that if I had more kittens I could have found homes for them all. U may get so many calls you can be choosy about who you put them with.

BE VERY CAREFUL PUTTING ANIMALS ON CRAIG'S LIST!!!

Animal Labs cruise Craig's list to find their test animals!!!!!!!

Very terrible life ending up as a lab animal. They pose as ordinary citizens, so me even pay people to get free animals off Craig's list. Most shelters and rescue groups know what to look for and won't give animals to them.

So be very careful who you deal with if you advertise the dawgs on there!

Have to be even more careful with dogs who have any pit in them. Brother Wolf has a very good screening process. They do a home visit...make sure the dog has a good home and is a good match.

This is my first experience with pits. They are such great dogs. Both of the dogs I have taken to work just love everyone. As I said, they are quite a hit with my residents. I think they are therapy dog material. Can't believe how these dogs are so badly abused by some people. Can't bear to think about it.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
