They took to the change with gusto and now the world outside the door and windows is glared at with perpetual suspicion and distrust, not desire. Scoops would sit and watch birds all day if we didn't like in a 5th floor apartment, but when he goes for walks he loves climbing and bird watchinhg.

Uplifting story incoming! I work at a specialty pet store/dog wash, where people can wash their dogs themselves or have us do it for them. We got a call earlier today from a new customer looking for a full serve appointment for a Keeshond (think small dark akita) she had just picked up from a family friend. Apparently, the new customer, "Lana," had driven up from Massachusetts into Maine after talking with the dog's owner and having met the dog many times over a few years while visiting her mother. She was concerned the dog, Zenni, was being neglected and had finally convinced the owner to let her take Zenni and find her a home that fit her needs. I didn't know any of these details when Lana, her daughter Sylvia, and Zenni walked through the door, all I thought was "Holy poo poo, when was the last time this dog was brushed??" I was completely poleaxed by the state this poor pup was in. She clearly hadn't been brushed in what I'm sure was MONTHS, and had poop stuck to her butt as well as more than a couple fleas. I put her in the tub and was tugging handfuls of matted hair out of her, which she took extremely well. Most dogs hate the bath and many aren't fond of being brushed, especially when you're pulling fist-sized matts out of them, but Zenni was a loving champ. She panted hard the whole time but only whined twice, let me maneuver her as needed, and even clip her nails and use our industrial blow drier. I can't have a dog due to job/living space but I kind of fell in love with her, and really wish I could have taken her. She has an amazing temperament. All of this was great, but I ended up spending well over 2 hours on Zenni, well past the time my shift ended. I think I became a bit maniacal, I ended up using a special conditioner and conditioning spray that I didn't charge Lana for because goddamn was I gonna make that dog pretty. After the first hour and a half or so Lana and Sylvia (mid-20's) came back from an errand and hung around while I finished up so I learned her whole story as written above. Her previous owner fed her only once a day, in the mornings. Zenni was usually housebroken unless "her owner was gone for 14 hours or so." She got very little exercise, but was luckily neither obese or emaciated. And god, what a good loving dog. She was sweet as could be, and I really, really, really wish I was in a position to take her. At the end, I finally let Zenni go. Lana took a picture of us and texted it to me, which was lovely of her, and promised to let me know if they would decide to keep her themselves or rehome her after an extensive background check--Lana's done this sort of thing before. I promised to post on Facebook if she became available. Additionally, Lana mentioned she'd like to give me a tip on her credit card, which was very nice, but I usually expect about $5, maybe $10. My coworker rung her up, so I didn't see it until they left. Lana tipped me $50. Moral of the story: if you know anyone who is neglecting their dog, you can convince them--maybe over a long period of time--that the dog, cat, or whatever might be better elsewhere. Sometimes you win that fight and the animal goes on to a wonderful life they never could have dreamed. If you know of a animal like this, don't wait. Broach the subject, make your argument. Let it simmer if you have to. But if the results are anything like Zenni, you won't be disappointed.

When I was a kid, my sister who in general has no redeeming features, rescued a dog that was in a similar condition (and disposion despite the neglect). People who rented a trailer from the folks opposite our house had got a poodle for their 3 year old, to teach the child responsibility. She was given exclusive care over this dog. It was as grown out, matty, and emaciated as you might imagine -- sometimes it would break free of its rope and end up in our yard, sleeping in my dog's bed or playing in our yard with my dog's toys. It was really, really affectionate. One of the times when it escaped, my sister was over, and was shocked at the condition of the dog (and that my dad would not do anything about it -- he was one of those 'well, dogs take their chances person', or, as they are more formally known, a dickhead). Anyway, she went over to their house and offered to take the dog for free since they weren't interested in it. Oh no! Said the dad. That's our little girl's dog. It's her responsibility. My sister gave up after a while, but the next time she was over, she went back to their house and offered them $100 for the dog (this was around 1975 or so. She wasn't going to gently caress around and figured daddy would sell the kid for $100). She got the dog all cleaned up, and turned out it was a he -- dog lived like a spoiled king the rest of his life, really good natured and funny as hell (he learned to ride my nephew's boogie board down the beach). One of my best cats was one I took in from a neglectful neighbour. Mr Nuts practically lived at my house anyway, and when they moved away and left him behind, well yeah. They came back a week later to finish cleaning up the house and the wife demanded him back. The husband had the grace to look embarrassed when I quarreled with her, then Mr Nuts came wandering up the street. The husband said, 'Well, you each call him, and whoever he goes to, he belongs to.' She started calling and cajoling him. I said, 'Nuts, get your arse over here.' I like stories of people who rescue pets (even though I still think my sister is a tosser of the highest order).

Turtle shells grow with them, they're actually part of the skeleton.

Turtle shells are actually eggshells. They just pop the head and limbs out and start walking.
