VISIT FROM METROPLEX ANIMAL COALITION

Some time ago, I think back in April, I received a letter from a woman name Jonnie from the Mitchell Foundation, in Dallas, Texas, USA. They were interested in coming over and visiting different organizations and foundations that worked with helping animals.



Well, in September she and Ashley came over, and I got the pleasure to show them around in our area. We visited our 18 dogs--that could be like a kennel in itself. And all the dogs loved up on them, and so did my daughter Olivia.

I took them around to one of the better shelters in Liccola, with 500 dogs. I wanted them to visit the Governmental shelter in Giuliano but since I am not allowed inside that horrible shelter, we took a drive around the outside.

Outside the shelter we saw some strays. One female with a bad eye infection. Ashley and I jumped out and put out some food. Jonnie and Ashley donated money to help the female with medicine. And so we did, I went back with two Italian volunteers, and we medicated her (and named her Laura).

I had a great day, it felt less hard to show them around since they understood what I was talking about and what needed to be done. It was very nice to have "colleagues" They took me to lunch, we visited the AWL hospice and the day went by so fast and it was time to drive them to the train station. There, we met my favorite stray that always hangs around there. He is such a sweet heart and he is a happy stray

Thank you Jonnie and Ashley for visiting us it was a true pleasure. Love your t shirts ;-)

Later on Jonnie and Ashley visited the dogs in Pompeii.
