I went to the North Central Animal Shelter and there were two ladies there I thought you should meet.
Nannette A0979352 Female /1 year old/ 54 pounds
Nannette was found wandering alone in Griffith Park. A park ranger brought her over to the shelter in hopes that there may be a family looking for her.
She shares a kennel with Hersey below and a very grumpy black dog. Nannette and Hersey try not to get in Grumpy dogs way.
Hersey 0977297 Spayed Female/ 12 years old/ 47 pounds
“Too Many” was the reason Hersey (Hershey?) was left at the shelter. She has been here for a few weeks and she is really not enjoying her stay. She is a very wise and kind dog that would really be no trouble at all.
Please email this post to anyone you know that may be interested in one of these fabulous gals so that they may find the great homes they deserve.
Aww, poor puppies. I can’t even go into shelters because of all the sad animal faces …

This puts me in physical pain. I’d love to help out at shelters but I don’t know how I could, I am crying looking at these poor babies. I’m racking my brain thinking of who might want a pup. How do you do this~ you are a good soul~

A friend e-mailed me a link to this blog because I have adopted Nannette (now Amber). I am a volunteer at North Central and was originally just going to foster her, but our whole family adores her, so she’ll be living in a home with people, dogs, and cats…guess where? In Griffith Park! Isn’t that funny? I wonder if she recognizes the neighborhood.
Thanks for taking all those gorgeous pictures of our girl!
I am also fostering the dog that was next door to Nannette, one kennel down. This dog was red-listed and her euthanasia date planned, but perfectly people and dog-friendly! She is staying with me until I get a good home for her.
