A letter from Dixie Barkington, a Grand Strand Humane Society Resident
July 19, 2010 - My name is Dixie. I am a golden lab and everyone tells me how beautiful I am. I’m two years old and I need a home. I love people, especially kids because they like to play. I don’t understand why I’m at the Grand Strand Humane Society. I thought I did everything right. I was a good girl and I tried so hard; but I heard my family talking about how they couldn’t afford me anymore. One day they asked me if I wanted to go for a car ride. Yea! When my mommy started crying, I knew something was wrong. My daddy handed my leash to one of the nice workers at the Grand Strand Humane Society. My entire family cried as I walked away from them. I cried, too. I waited for them to come back, but they never did.
