This month’s good deed
Sometimes the world demands you stop and help.
I found this guy alone by a shade tree in a not-so-remote area of Anthony Chabot Regional Park. Covered with bugs and filth, I took about 15 minutes to convince him that I could leash him. I brought him back to the horse stables where he was immediately surrounded by children. Patiently and tiredly, he let them pet him with hardly a trace of aggression. Now he’s here at my feet, a mellow slightly scared guy.
Thanks to the folks at Montclair Veterinary Hospital, he’ll be neutered on Tuesday and his cherry eyes will be repaired, all for free. I’ll be fostering him until I figure out the right rescue agency.
