Lillian Brightside

Some things we will never understand. This is one of them. Lillian passed away suddenly at the clinic for no apparent reason. Our condolences to the clinic staff who were caring for her.

Bulldog friends, when I arrived at the shelter I was as surprised as they were. After all I am just a baby.

My new shelter friends let me stay in their office because they told me I would not be there long enough to be put in a kennel. I sure was hoping that was the case because the shelter was over-flowing with dogs, and they had temporary crates in the hall. I had been picked up walking around a neighborhood and I was getting really hot really fast.  Every day at the shelter I wondered where my family was. Surely, they were missing me by now. But days turned into weeks as I sat waiting.

Finally, I got the word that my stay at the shelter had come to an end and no one had called or came to see if I was there. I was relieved when rescue was called, and they were on their way.

Before long I will be ready for a new family, and I sure hope they don’t lose me like my last family did. My name is Lillian Brightside and I am just a little lady about a year old.
