Dash

My friend Dawn, and our kids were
on our way to take the kiddies to
Toys R Us, for a treat. We spotted
a painter turtle tipped upside down
on his back, still alieve.

The road was a very busy road.
No one was stopping to help the
poor little guy. So, we stopped on
the side of the road. People kept
speeding by.

I made people stop and grabbed
the poor turtle off of the road. He
was still alieve but had a small
bleeding crack on his back.

We began to look for vets who
took reptiles. We found one.
If we signed the turtle over to
them they would not only fix
the turtle for free, they would
find him a good home.

They have a safe place for
turtles to go to. We named him
Dash, after the kid in the
Incredibles movie. And wished
him well.

We are waiting for the vet's office
to keep us posted on Dash. I will
post more when I find out how
Dash made it after the surgery!
I will post more when I can!
