Pierre-January 30, 2006
This old boy was rescued from a reserve. He had been found wandering on a work site. A kind man took this boy in and called us. He was emaciated, had a raging skin infection over a big part of his body. He had open oozing sores all over\unneutered and large masses hanging from his neglected body. He was made to sleep outside in the cold and was either loose running the reserve or tied up outside. He now lives inside with his foster family who love him more than words could ever say. He doesn't like to go outside\unless his family is there. Can you blame him?? He sleeps under the covers with either his foster Mom or his human sister. It took a bit of coaxing for them to get him on the couch!! He was never allowed indoors and was not allowed on furniture. He now snuggles on the sofa with his family. They leave the TV on for him if he has to be alone, which is infrequent. Now he knows love, kindness, compassion and what it is like to have food always, and most of all what it feels like to be part of a family that loves him.
Pierre unfortunately has only been in rescue just over one month, and won't be with us very much longer. A second blood test shows that he has lymposarcoma\most likely in his spleen and liver. He is not in pain, he sleeps more but still does the boxer wiggle and now throws his favorite toys around, he loves his stuffies!! He didn't even know how to play when he first came into rescue.

Soon his time will be up but at least he will have known love......finally.
If only we could get to them all sooner...
If only.. animals new only kindness..
If only .. abuse, neglect didn't exist..
If only....
If only......
