Hurricane Dorian victims reunite pets weeks after storm ...

The Humane Society of the Grand Bahamas reported having almost 200 dogs when the hurricane hit. The storm killed over half of them. (Big Dog Ranch Rescue)

OXAHATCHEE, Fla. –– Amid the devastation in the Bahamas left behind by Hurricane Dorian – the dozens of lives lost and the hundreds of homes swept away -- there is another growing concern: Dozen of emaciated and sick pets roaming the island with no place to go.
Rescue teams say the dogs rescued from the Bahamas were brought over by boat and plane. Many were badly injured. (Big Dog Ranch Rescue)
Animal groups are trying to reunite the pets with their owners, and trying to save the lives of others whose owners have not been found. "They have lost everything over there," said Lauree Simmons, founder and president of the Big Dog Ranch Rescue, a group located in Palm Beach County. "They need their animals, they need their dogs, they need their best friend, and they need to know that everything is OK."

Time to step away.

I think it's time for me to step away as well. Reasons are multiple. Mainly the loss of old friends, Susan and milo but others as well that, when I check their profiles, have been inactive for months, some for a year or two. Never heard why.

If we’re all unique, doesn’t that make being unique not unique?
