Hello, Bitchfaces. I’m in a surprisingly good mood tonight, thank Baby Jesus himself. Maybe it’s because it’s not as witch titty cold in North Florida this week, maybe it’s because I have a trip to The Bay coming up, maybe it’s because Puffin let me lay next to her on the couch for ten minutes before she decided I’m still not her person. Whatever it is, take full advantage of it.
As you can see from the cute ass face above, there are a lot of dogs who still need someone to fucking love them. Unlike Puffin, who is not into free love, and won’t allow any of that touchy-feely shit anywhere near her. I don’t have a clue where she learned to be so fucking mean, y’all.
The velvet hippo thread over on Reddit keeps an eye on pits and pit mixes who are nearing the end of the holds shelters have them on, be it lost dog, up for adoption, whatever type. They’re really doing good things with it. I put an application in for a boy in New York a couple of months ago, but someone beat me to him. Now I have one on a central Florida boy, and if I don’t get him, I might get emotional.
There are so damned many dogs right now who need a home, it’s really a shitty look. I spoke with Brandi about it, and she says it’s largely due to the housing crisis, and that makes a lot of sense. If you can’t afford to house yourself and your family, you sure can’t afford a dog. I get it. Trust me, we get it.
Again, I’ll take this opportunity to do that thing I sometimes do, where I spread a little Bitchface love. If you are in a financial bind, and your choices are feed your family or feed your pet, I need you to reach out to me. I will Amazon you a bag of dog (or cat) food right now. No questions, no judgement, it’s not that type of fucking party.
I know shit can get trying, I’ve been there, and if we’re honest, I’m still there. I’m lucky. I have low friends in high places who love dogs and cats. Without them, I’d be just one more broke bitch with a half-Staffie I should have trained a little better. However, I keep a little on tap for my folk, so if you need some Blue Buffalo in the mix, holler at a Bitchface.
Please, stop into one of the dog forums. Or your local shelter or SPCA page. Basically, go look into a pet if you have the time and resources for one. They’re good for you, you’re good for them. That’s what we call a win-win situation.
Y’all know how to get me. thequeen@askabitchface.net, throw your comment on deck, or see me on any of the Bitchface pages out there. I own them all, so just throw a fucking dart at them.
Love

Mhm…
Well here's hoping the local boy finds solace with you and 4-legged Bitchface ❤️
I'll also add that the other big factor affecting pets is the skyrocketing cost of veterinary care. We are seeing many relinquished with neglected health issues. It is all so sad. A lot of shelters have food pantries for pets because that's an easy solution to keep bellies full.
Then there are the pure assholes..... Today a local prick returned a dog he adopted about a year ago, because......she smelled. Because she has yeasty bully skin, which he was well aware of on adoption day. He also did us a solid and packed an extra 30lbs on her so she can barely breathe.
There are no end to these types of dipshits, but the other problems are dire.
