My hubby rescued a dog!!! My hubby found a little dog out in the country - long story - little guy looked like benji! He was all matted, to the skin. Hubby called to see if he could bring him home - I say sure - wondering what in the world I was going to do with the little guy.
I shaved him down and all the hair on his back came off in one huge mat. He had sand burs (stickers) all up and down his legs and on his chest - some were matted to his skin. His butt hole was matted shut - I have no idea how he pooped. We took 25 ticks off him and then treated him for fleas. He is the best tempered dog, he sat without moving the whole time I shaved him.
He is a real sweetie pie. Took him to the vet today, he is only about a year old and in perfect health.
My daughter and granddaughter are thrilled with him and they are going to keep him. We got him a belly band tonight because I don't think he's ever been in the house. They will have to work on potty training.
I'm posting some before and after pix! Oh! his name is Harley!
Picture #3 is the before picture - they got rearranged in posting. Pictures 1, 2, and 4 are after pictures
