This past weekend was the inaugural Alberta Chapter H O G Rally in Sundre.
Me and my tribe were supposed to attend. I left home on Wenesday with a Oversize load going to Vancouver. No biggy. Do it all the time. Get to Port Coquitlam on Thursday to deliver. Everybody is gone. Still deliver Friday morning be in Sundre Friday night. Nope didn't happen, no paperwork for load.
Family is kinda choked,but this is trucking.
Fast Forward to Sunday evening. Sitting in Glouchester Industrial Park in Langley BC. Getting the 10 Axle worked on. Security guard sees Diablo in the truck and asks if the White dog running around is mine too. What white dog I asked. Apparently there has been a white Pit Bull running around the back of the yard.
They wanted to call the RCMP and Animal Control to come deal with it. I asked to go see.
Dude is scared to death of Pit Bulls.
I walked over to there see the dog. He is scared. Running with his tail between his legs. I tried to coax him out with no luck. Figure he is hungry so I go to McDonalds for my supper and for Diablo Get a cheeseburger as well for the white one.
Spent another hour trying to get him to come and take it. Finally he starts to slink over on his tummy. He is thin and emaciated. Wolfs down the burger and sniffs me. He can smell Diablo on me and sniffs more. I get him to follow me back to my Pete and get him some water and dry food.
Introduced Him and Diablo after the usual dog introductions and sniffing in places.
Took 3 hours for him to finally allow me to pet him and be able to check him over. Calls to the Animal society today (Monday) tell me if I bring him in he would be put down by Friday if nobody collects him.
This poor boy has been abused and abandoned. Marks show on him of being abused. I have "Jake" as I call him now in my truck with Diablo and going to bring him home to Alberta with me. He now has a new home with us.
So my Heartfelt Apologies to Doug and everybody for not being there but apparently somebody else needed me more out here in Langley BC.
Next Time for sure.
