Ours was found out in the desert, seriously injured leg, dangerously infected foot. Rescue workers got him to a vet who did a great job amputating and getting him healed.

He is very lean, as a breed type, and not a lot of fur. It gets chilly here in the borderlands so my daughter got him a sweater. He LOVES his sweater and is happy to have it put on every chilly morning. He loves our other dog and is sweet to the old cat, also a rescue who ALWAYS thanks us after every meal.

She'll find me wherever I am and kiss and snuggle me. I rescued her from the ASPCA shelter 6 years ago. She was afraid of everything, including coming inside. Wouldn't let me come near her. She stayed outside for a month, even at night in subfreezing temps. It took a month for her to come in. Now she loves 'home', her sofa, her food, and her family. Especially the little kids, my grandkids.
