這只名叫Y.O.的狗在威肯堡動(dòng)物保護(hù)協(xié)會(huì)生活了400天后被收養(yǎng)
It is unfortunate that dogs (among many other animals, in fact) often end up in shelters. Besides all of the stress and trauma that they have to live through after being abandoned or after having lived in the “wild” streets, being in a shelter doesn’t guarantee a happily-ever-after ending. But at least it tries its hardest to do so. And sometimes hard work pays off in heaps.
不幸的是，狗(事實(shí)上還有許多其他動(dòng)物)經(jīng)常被關(guān)進(jìn)收容所。除了被遺棄或生活在“荒郊野外”的街道上所經(jīng)歷的所有壓力和創(chuàng)傷，住在收容所并不能保證一個(gè)永遠(yuǎn)幸福的結(jié)局。但至少盡了最大努力去這樣做。有時(shí)努力工作會(huì)得到成堆的回報(bào)。
Meet Lola, a former stray pooch and young mother of six who ended up in a shelter along with all of her offspring. But, after an impressive 400-plus days, she was finally adopted and now lives in her forever home in Mesa, Arizona.
來認(rèn)識(shí)一下洛拉，她以前是一只流浪狗，現(xiàn)在是六個(gè)孩子的母親，最后和她的孩子們一起來到了收容所。但是，在令人印象深刻的400多天后，她終于被收養(yǎng)了，現(xiàn)在她永遠(yuǎn)住在亞利桑那州梅薩的家中。
Meet Lola, the 2 Y.O. mommy doggy of 6 puppers who has ended up in an animal shelter over a year ago
來認(rèn)識(shí)一下洛拉，這只2歲的小狗媽媽，有6只幼犬，一年前被送到了動(dòng)物收容所
So, Lola was originally brought to the Humane Society of Wickenburg, Arizona over a year ago, in September of 2019, as a stray along with her litter of six puppies.
所以，羅拉最初是在一年多前，也就是2019年9月，作為一只流浪狗和她的六只幼犬被帶到亞利桑那州威肯堡動(dòng)物保護(hù)協(xié)會(huì)的。
She continued raising her puppies whilst in the shelter, and watched as each of them, one by one, were adopted as she patiently waited for her turn.
在收容所里，她繼續(xù)養(yǎng)著她的小狗，耐心地等待輪到她的時(shí)候，她看著它們一個(gè)個(gè)被收養(yǎng)。
It does take a while for dogs to get adopted, and it’s around seven times longer when you consider dog years, so it does feel like an eternity for the pooch. But it doesn’t usually take as long as it did in Lola’s case.
狗狗被收養(yǎng)確實(shí)需要一段時(shí)間，考慮到狗狗的年齡，這段時(shí)間大約要長七倍，所以對(duì)狗狗來說，這確實(shí)是一段很長的時(shí)間。但通常不會(huì)像洛拉的案子那樣花那么長的時(shí)間。
Nobody thought she would end up staying there for over 400 days—much more than most other dogs!
沒有人想到她會(huì)在那里待上400多天——比大多數(shù)狗都要多!
But after a long wait, Lola was transferred to another shelter and was adopted within less than 24 hours
但經(jīng)過長時(shí)間的等待，洛拉被轉(zhuǎn)移到另一個(gè)避難所，不到24小時(shí)就被收養(yǎng)了
To many people’s surprise, Lola spent over 400 days in the shelter. In our terms, that’s more than a year, and in Lola’s terms, that is over half of her current lifetime!
讓很多人吃驚的是，洛拉在避難所呆了400多天。用我們的話說，那超過了一年，用洛拉的話說，那超過了她現(xiàn)在生命的一半!
Along with her were 6 of her puppies, who were one-by-one adopted during her stay at the shelter
和她一起的還有6只小狗，它們是她在收容所期間被一個(gè)接一個(gè)收養(yǎng)的
After these 400-plus days, she made her way to Phoenix, Arizona to try her luck getting adopted. Thanks to the Arizona Humane Society’s (AHS) Project Reachout Program, an initiative launched to help save as many pets’ lives as possible by working together with other shelters, Lola was finally transferred to another shelter where she was adopted in under 24 hours.
過了400多天，她來到了亞利桑那州的鳳凰城，想碰碰運(yùn)氣被人收養(yǎng)。多虧了亞利桑那動(dòng)物保護(hù)協(xié)會(huì)的“救助計(jì)劃”，這是一項(xiàng)旨在通過與其他收容所合作來拯救盡可能多的寵物生命的倡議，洛拉終于在24小時(shí)內(nèi)被轉(zhuǎn)移到另一個(gè)收容所，并在那里被收養(yǎng)。
Now, shelters aren’t legally obligated to keep animals for more than 1–7 days, depending on the state
現(xiàn)在，根據(jù)各州的情況，動(dòng)物收容所沒有法律義務(wù)飼養(yǎng)動(dòng)物超過1-7天
But the Arizona Humane Society kept her for over 400 days until she finally got adopted last week
但亞利桑那州動(dòng)物保護(hù)協(xié)會(huì)將她養(yǎng)了400多天，直到上周它終于被收養(yǎng)
And this worked out for the best as this also meant that she got adopted and will continue living her life together with her new forever family in Mesa, Arizona.
這是最好的結(jié)果，因?yàn)檫@也意味著她被收養(yǎng)了，并將繼續(xù)和她在亞利桑那州梅薩的新家生活在一起。
A very social dog all around, it was a complete mystery why she was given the short end of the stick when it came to adoption. Luckily, the relocation solved the problem!
她是一只非常善于社交的狗，但當(dāng)它被人收養(yǎng)時(shí)，為什么遭到了不公平的對(duì)待，這真是個(gè)謎。幸運(yùn)的是，重新定位解決了這個(gè)問題!
