On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair shirt

Never stroke a sleeping dog especially a rescue, you will startle them and the risk of them biting is increased. I have a rescue boxer who the only thing I can trust him with it kids even so I wouldn’t allow anyone child or adult to stroke him while he’s sleeping. Luckily I have dog savvy children who also know the boundaries and respect him. Nicole Mangus My first cat was, literally, a “rescue”; we found her on the freight train tracks near our home when she was about two months old. As a kitten, she used to attack just about anything that moved. When she was six months old, we took her to the vet to be spayed. There we found another kitten about the same age and adopted HIM. After a short adjustment period, the two of them settled down to acceptance of each other. The female has behaved herself ever since
