When I met Andy he had a rescue dog and his name was Plum Loco.
I laughed when he told me his name, he said you will understand when you meet him.
As soon as I met him I understood his name. * he was completely crazy with so much energy)
This dog had been adopted thru the shelter twice and brought back.
When he adopted him the man told him, you will be back with him. Andy said what do you mean? When I make a committment such as this I keep it.
He said OK sure we will see.
Well Loco was indeed a high energy dog and he had Parvo and Andy got him thru that, they were best friends and yes this dog indeed would not have made it with just anyone, you just really had to have the heart and energy and determination that it was going to work. Loco lived many years and he became my best buddy when I moved in. I was a dog lover from the day I was born so he was just another great dog to love.
We had many crazy days with this lovely boy. I miss him to this day but I totally understand he would be a difficult dog to adopt out and it work. Not everyone could have handled him. He was indeed unique but so full of love for you and for life.
Another rescue we went thru that was totally the opposite.
This was a Yorkie who was 5 years old, neutered all shots up to date and freshly groomed and also the older lady that had kept him up so well had made an appt for him to be put down the same week she had done all of his updated shots and his grooming and she had always taken wonderful care of this dog. She was tired of him, finished just done that was it for her.
He had bit her grandkid (who had kicked him)
we got an a email that had been sent to 10 breeders, the sad thing is we were the only breeder that got back in touch to help this boy out.
Needless to say he was not a problem dog he was just in the wrong home.
But it was going to cost him his life if the groomer had not reached out for someone to save him. Rescues get all types of dogs.
it is indeed sad.
