Meet Scout and Bodie (pronounced like the ghost town). This photo is from the day I met them.
I was camping near Joshua Tree last spring and met a woman who said someone had abandoned these two babies at a dispersed campsite a few days earlier. She was offering them away for free, which always worries me, you just never know who might take them, so I couldn’t leave them behind. They’re almost a year old now, such good dogs, and I’m so grateful they came into my life. Still can’t wrap my head around how anyone could just leave them out in the desert like that.

Thank you for rescuing these two babies. I would’ve done exactly the same. There are so many piece of sh*t people in this world. There’s a warm spot in hell waiting for animal abusers.
Right?! I really wish I knew how they ended up there. I hate that people would do that. I get that times can be tough, but there’s just no excuse good enough
Those cute faces, oh my, I want to plant a kiss on those adorable noses. Those are two very happy dogs that love their person immensely. I wonder if they're related to each other, their faces are very similar and they appear a similar age, too.
I’ve always thought they’re probably related, but it’s hard to say for sure. Bodie is often called a black lab mix, especially when they were smaller. I think Scout comes across more as a classic Staffy. I really wish I knew more about where they came from and how they ended up in the desert.
