Headin’ to New York!

Howdy Friends,

Little Ike here with another Hurricane Rescue Update.

Today they told me that we’re hittin’ the road again – but this time, we’re making our way back home! All the folks at the Nashville shelter sure were nice. We couldn’t ask for a better group of people. They helped walked me and all of my new doggie friends and gave the cats on board some room to stretch their legs and play before loading up for the ride to New York. My oh my – New York! I’m in the big time now.

Once on board the big truck, I fell fast asleep. I wanted to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for my arrival at the Animal League, cause these folks are puttin’ me up for adoption! I can’t wait, can’t wait.

So we traveled and traveled until we finally got there. They helped me off the huge moving thing and gave me hugs and kisses. I felt like a T.V. star. People already knew my name and who I am. I think I could get used to this! If this is what having a family is like, I’m all for it. Then I got a bath and a buncha people came in to say hello. If things get any better, I may have to hire someone to help me enjoy it.

So now, I’m all neutered and ready to find a home, and am fixin’ ta do just that! I’d like to say thanks to the nice folks that rescued me; they worked real hard to get me to New York so I can find a family and have a new home.

This sure was an adventure, and I know the best is yet to come. There’s lots to do, too. I’m just as busy as a moth in a mitten, so I better run now. I’ll talk to ya soon, ye hear?

Love and Tail-Wags,

Ike
