The final count for 2015 for dogs rescued from kill shelters with the help of profits from my books is 148. Below are the last of the group for this year. Here they are to give everyone a wagging wish for a very Happy New Year. Thank you again and again to all who have helped with this effort in any way.

About The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap
The year 1895 was filled with memorable historical events: the Dreyfus Affair divided France; Booker T. Washington gave his Atlanta address; Richard Olney, United States Secretary of State, expanded the effects of the Monroe Doctrine in settling a boundary dispute between the United Kingdom and Venezuela; and Oscar Wilde was tried and convicted for "gross indecency" under Britian's recently passed law that made sex between males a criminal offense. When the news of Wilde's conviction went out over telegraphs worldwide, it threw a small Nevada town into chaos. This is the story of what happened when the lives of its citizens were impacted by the news of Oscar Wildes' imprisonment. It is chronicle of hatred and prejudice with all its unintended and devastating consequences, and how love and friendship bring strength and healing.
Paulette Mahurin, the author, is a Nurse Practitioner who lives in Ojai, California with her husband Terry and their two dogs--- Max and Bella. She practices women's health in a rural clinic and writes in her spare time. All profits from her book are going to animal rescue, Santa Paula Animal Shelter, the first and only no-kill shelter in Ventura County, CA, where she lives. (see links below on Ventura County Star Article & Shelter)

I’m thrilled we’ve been able to help so many dogs. And it’s been alongside a lot of really terrific people. Blessings to your two and may your year be filled with healthy and joyful travels. ❤
I am certain that dogs have evolved into a higher state – they have been given the great gift of all: a tail to wag with happiness. Thank you dear friend for all the wags and the cheers, and the laughter and hope that you have given to these marvelous creatures. They are so beautiful…
Ah yes the evolution of a dog, I think you’re on to something my dear friend, Rebecca. And thank you back, once again, for all you’ve given to me/my heart and the world. May peace, joy, and health be yours this next year. ❤
ANd multiply these happy faces by the faces they are now making happy! ❤
Aww, that’s an image of great beauty. Love it! Love you! ❤
What happy faces and news. We hope da New Year is blest and sees lots more furever homes found by deservin’ furries. Happy New year to you all!!!
Luv ya’
Dezi and Lexi
Right back at ya with lotsa Luv ya. all of us wag wag wag ❤
148 and that’s a whole lot of wagon/ wagging for you to have made possible. I love those old dogs. I’m so glad they were adopted. I just don’t understand how people can give up their old pet to the shelter. It boggles my mind.
I know what you mean, but have come to learn that there are different reasons. Some being that the owner died and there was no one to take the dog. Those are particularly sad. Thankfully, there are a lot of good people out there willing to take an older dog, and bless them for that, for helping a sweet friend to a peaceful comfortable end. Wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year and may your days in 2016 be filled with good health and laughter. ❤
Here’s wishing the same for you and your husband. May the year bring many book sales and many more shelter dogs getting a home.
❤
Thank you for sharing these stories of kindness, Paulette. It’s a wonderful way to end the old year and begin anew. 🙂
Hi and thank you, Carol. I sure do agree with you, can’t think of anything better than helping to save a life. My heart is full with images of the dogs with their new happy families. Happy New Year. ❤
The people who take these old dogs are special…they know the heartache they will feel but still give these old dears love and comfort in their declining years.
Do you know of the Twilight rescue home in France? They take the oldies and treat them like kings.
No, I hadn’t heard of them but just went to their site and fell in love. For anyone who sees this, and especially anyone who lives in France, here a rescue group to support. They rescue older dogs and help them to a peaceful happy ending. A lovely site and group that will open and warm hearts. http://www.twilightchiens.com/
Bless them and all the people who help another, whether it be animal, plant, or human. Acts of kindness ripple and impact us all.
Be well, happy, all good things to you and yours, Helen.
Love,
Paulette
Thank you for giving a helping hand to Twilight….lovely people.
My pleasure and yes they are stellar. We’re all in this to help each other. Grateful you brought them up.
Freedom for all of them, we like that! Bringing you Extra fresh Pawkisses for a Happy and Healthy New Year 🙂 ❤
Hello my sweet friends. You know that your pawkisses through the year inspired me. So many many wagging thanks, pawkisses, and lotsa love from all of us over here. ❤
Such a happy end of year post, Paulette. Happy New Year to you and all those sweet animals. 🙂
Your sweet words and stopping by made it all the sweeter. It’s the best thing to share good news and boy saving a life ranks high up there. Happy New Year to you and your family. ❤
Wishing you a delightful new year, may the Lord bless those who have a kind heart toward all God’s creations.Jal

Beautiful post my friend
Thanks Jake. I’m so happy to be able to share it with my cyber pals, like you. Hope you have a great year. ❤
Your welcome my friend 😜😜😜
🙂
Wishing you a very happy new year Pauline….here’s to more dogs finding their forever families in 2016!
Thank you so much, my friend. I’m with you all the way on that wish, for more dogs to land in safe homes. Wishing you a great year. ❤
A warming up post.
Thank you, Lou. ❤
Just watching their freedom pictures brought tears to my eyes.
Poor souls, those who are still with the sword over their heads. You know, Paulette, when it’s about cats and dogs I am soft at heart. God bless your generous soul!
I know what you mean about tearing up over the freedom photos. It’s such a good feeling to see a dog go from jail to freedom. And yes, dogs and cats, sure do have a way into our hearts. They turn my heart to mush as well. Love them! ❤
Just love it!! Your dedication is a beautiful thing! ❤ Blessings for a new year!
Aww, thanks so much. You got me all excited.Great way to start the day. And many blessings are wished right back to you for a wonderful 2016. ❤
That’s a wonderful achievement. Here’s to many more wagging tales in 2016!
Thank you, Clowie. It was the effort of a lot of incredibly good and dog-loving people all over. I feel really lucky to be a small part of such a big and wonderful effort. Right on to many more wagging tails. ❤
Happy new year xx
Same to you and your bipeds, Misaki. wag wag ❤
A woof and a Happy New Year!
Aww, that’s a sweet way to start my day, with your woof. Happy New Year to you, my friend. ❤
Always fun to visit your pups. Cheers !
And they sure do love you stopping by. You really get their tails wagging, my friend. ❤
That’s really lovely. I’m very fond of old dogs, in particular, and always happy when someone adopts them. I’d like to do more adopting myself, when I buy a property – not sure if my slightly dog-unfriendly partner will let me though..we’ll see.
So nice to see you here, thank you. I just love dogs and certainly hope it works out for you in the future, but if it’s not in the cards for you, then feel free to stop by here anytime. All the dogs that are on my site just love visitors. You’re always welcome. Happy New Year to you. ❤
So wonderful!
Aww, thanks Sarah and Choppy. It’s all the sweeter to share with my cyber pals like ya’ll. ❤
We’re happy someone does this to help so many animals – our lives here are definitely far better with our rescue dog than they would be without her (the cat may also, grudgingly, fall into the category of life improvement). So nice to see others getting help!
❤
And thank you so much!
Aww, it’s our pleasure and joy to help these sweet pooches. So happy you stopped by to share in the all the happy wagging tails. ❤
That had me close to blubbing – tell no one!!!! Damn you woman!
Great work though, wonderful.
Shhhh, I’ll tell no one. They are a sweet lot of fur babies. So glad they made it to freedom and loving homes. ❤
They all deserve a taste of the happiness my pack of ungrateful mutts take for granted.
Yup, they sure do and they’ll act just like yours once settled into their loving homes. I know, I have two from kill shelters that are spoiled spoiled spoiled! Have a grrrrrreat day my friend. 🙂
