Stuff on Scout's Head

Since getting home from the 7th drop off this month (last night) I’ve been trying to draft up the words to express an appropriate thank you. THANK YOU for everything YOU have made possible. None of these efforts would be possible without taking the time to do some early spring cleaning, to dust off and toss out the things you’ve been meaning to, the donations, the items dropped off while I’m at work, the gift certificates friends have dropped off, the e-transfers, THE HUGS. Last night me and Tiff loaded up the car with donations of shoes and blankets (mainly, but even crutches too!!!) that had been dropped off to my apartment over the last few days & bags of dozens of bagels and fresh treats I had picked up from Seventh Sister. Our first stop before heading to the shelter was to a clearance sale where the shoe cost was reduced even further due to volume as a result I left with 70 PAIRS OF SHOES, 17 brand new plus sized nearly floor length women’s coats, and 20 men’s large+ pairs of jeans, we grabbed another 35 fleece blankets and then we were on our way 💕 none of this is possible without your help!!! This remarkable movement has all happened within this MONTH, within 7 drop offs since January 5th; in TWENTY days I’ve seen people come together that I haven’t seen in years, people I’ve never met, people I know only through the Internet. It’s been overwhelming and exciting and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I don’t want to lose momentum. Taking an extra moment to make sure your donations end up in the right hands is such minimal effort to make a huge difference, and I’m so glad we’re making this huge difference together. ❤️ #stuffinscoutshonour (at Toronto, Ontario)

@baileymoffatt is a literal goddess. After randomly letting me know this was in the works kinda recently, she casually posted this yesterday and I've been so speechless. Every little Scout specific detail is honestly magical. Check out her amazing tattoo work and her amazing household of puppies!

Someone has had to get a part time job as Santa's helper to get back on the Nice list this year - from Rü to you, I hope you all have the best holidays and spend it doing your favourite things with your favourite people. 🎁

The first holidays in 7 years without this bean by my side is turning out to be a difficult one already. 💔

I'm not American, but am feeling inspired by all these thankful posts that don't relate only to food. I'm thankful for a lot of things this year, although one of the hardest years of my life. I'm thankful for every minute I got to spend with Scout before he passed this year in June, without which I'd have never been so involved in so many outlets of the dog community and I'm so thankful I'm able to give back time and time again. I'm thankful for great friends who have stuck by my side despite all the sacrifices I have made to work too many jobs to try and pick up the pieces of my life. And most of all, I'm thankful for every dog I meet every day that I get to smooch and nose boop. Life is too short to get caught up in meaningless things that just drag you down ❤️

Everyone's safe thankfully! All dogs found in the van that has gone missing at 11:30am this morning. 💖

This lovely bean Mea is in need of some help to remove both a foreign object but mainly remove a large mass that's growing on her liver that was just found recently. Mea was adopted 4 years ago this December and there is nothing her mom wouldn't do for this babe. Having a friend go through a similarly rough time with her fur baby as I did absolutely breaks my heart. Please share and repost, every little bit helps as the money raised will be going towards a life saving surgery to remove both the foreign object as well as the mass. https://www.gofundme.com/mea-needs-surgery

@BarkPost has put together an awesome book of #dogsandtheirpeople which is out RIGHT NOW!!! #stuffonscoutshead is featured in it and there's a nice little blurb about BSL in it which I really appreciate as it's very important to me (and Scout) #barkbook

@pupjournal had some nice things to say about my most handsome devil 💖#stuffonscoutshead lives on in our hearts and our actions.

Bring your Rudy to work day; she just doesn't understand #stuffonrudyshead

The amount of food I'm able to collect for rescues is one of my constant sources of joy. A million thank yous to everyone who has assisted in making this all possible. Who would have thought that in under two years one person could orchestrate just over 15000lbs of food donations!? That's not even counting other supplies like endless amounts of crates, beds, pee pads, toys and all other supplies everyone has donated! Huge thanks to @spaw_boutique for always having supported #stuffonscoutshead and for having this amazing donation bin set up to be able to receive your donations at any time ❤️

I think this is my best photo from yesterday that represents what babies bully breeds truly are. The turn out, the weather, all sorts of beautiful dogs in attendance getting along; a true representation of Pitbulls as not only a pet, but a piece of SO many families. Please don't give up fighting, every bit gets us that much closer 💖 #endBSL
