Sourdough's Story

Sourdough arrived as if out of nowhere, a little figure in a quiet backyard. The woman who found him had already looked into her yard to another lost pigeon not long before, and so when she saw him standing there she couldn’t help but smile. It felt like destiny, as if her home had been marked on some secret map that only weary feathered travelers could read.<br/>Sourdough was no ordinary visitor. Though his journey as a survivor of the pigeon racing industry had clearly been difficult, there was nothing broken about his spirit. Sourdough carried himself with the bravado of a seasoned traveler, lively and feisty even from the first moment he was rescued.<br/>Now Sourdough waits for the next chapter. He has played the part of the racer, the survivor, and the wanderer who lands exactly where he needs to be. All that remains is for him to become what he was always meant to be: cherished and safe in a loving forever home where his bold, lively spirit can shine!
