BEAR
|
 |
“My name is Bear and this is my story: Five years ago my daddy took his nephews turkey hunting. Well, you know little boys get hungry, so they drove down the mountain to get some lunch. When they drove around the bend they saw me just sitting there all alone on the side of the road. I was cold, wet, and very hungry, and I didn’t have a home anymore." |

AUGGIE
|
 |
Auggie’s mom, Shari Yates-Morehead, says, “The black Lab with the bandana on is our rescue dog, Auggie. He came to us from the city pound in Falls City, Nebraska, in November of 2010. He was severely underweight, had been dumped twice at the pound, and had a terrible separation anxiety attachment disorder. Because of his behavioral issues, Auggie was placed on the euthanasia list, and he had only 12 hours left, so we saved him." |

TREASURE
|
 |
Treasure’s mom, Deb Bauer, says, “In May 2011, I was looking at Shelties on Petfinder. There I found Snowy, a 3 year old double merle Sheltie, who had been born both blind and deaf. I fell in love with her immediately and knew she was meant to be part of our family. Snowy was in a shelter in Missouri, a long ways from me here in Pennsylvania. I contacted the shelter and was told she was already being adopted. My heart was crushed, but I kept her picture beside my computer, and I just couldn’t get her out of my mind." |

BOBOB
|
 |
Bobob’s mom, Meghan Lodge, says, “Bobob was a shelter baby. He had been there over six months with no adoption prospects in sight. One of the kennel staff told almost every person that looked his way that he was going ‘kennel crazy,’ and that most certainly deterred possible adopters! Bobob was placed on the euthanasia list, and I adopted him two days before his time was up." |

SPARTACUS THE WONDERBULL
|
 |
Spartacus the Wonderbull’s mom, Amy Brakhane, says, “Spartacus was starved and abused and then dumped at the shelter. He was so weak he couldn’t stand or walk on his own. Spartacus was so skinny that his hip bones stuck out, and the vet said that he was very sick and needed medical care. So the shelter found a wonderful foster mom to take him in and get him healthy." |

WALTER THE ELDER BULL
|
 |
Walter’s mom, Lynn Ready, says, “Walter was found abandoned and wandering the streets of Steubenville, Ohio, in a rough neighborhood. The shelter where he ended up was not allowed to adopt out Pit Bulls (they’re euthanized), but a friend there managed to get him out of the shelter and give him to me. I wasn’t intending on adding another dog to our pack, but Walter turned out to fit in very nicely with our family." |
