Red Lake Rosie's Rescue got a call a week ago from Earl, a Red Lake elder who has a dog which he loves very much named Blonde. Blonde lies the good life indoors with Earl at the outlet, a remote area on the north side of the Red Lake Reservation, the source of the Red Lake River.Earl is ill and has to go through surgery and was concerned about Blonde, and how would she be cared for during his stay at the hospital.
We had spayed Blonde at the community clinic years ago. Earl continues to bring Blonde in for vaccination boosts and checkups. He feeds her very well -- perhaps too well. She spends her life indoors warm and toasty and has become Earl's #1 companion.
Earl asked if I would take care of her for a week, and I readily agreed as I know how much Blonde means to Earl. He wanted her to be safe until he gets home. We do not board animals, but how could I turn Earl and Blonde away?
Today Earl arrive with Blonde, who is not a happy camper right now, but will be in good hands.It is so great to know pet guardians who are really taking good care of their pets and love them dearly.
Best wishes and prayers for Earl as he gets the medical help he needs.

Yay for Earl! Best wishes for a quick recovery and happy reunion with his beloved Blonde!

Earl the pearl! ^_^ He was good friends with my dad back in the day when my dad was still alive. I used to be friends with his daughters but have lost touch with them now. So glad you helped him with Blonde, Karen. Earl's good people. ^_^
