One year ago today I stood in front of kennel number 156 at the Gwinnett County Animal Control lecturing my mother about how German Shepherds aren't aggressive dogs
in an attempt to get the dog I wanted after she said I could adopt one.Needless to say, she gave in and the little liver nosed puppy in the window was mine. We signed papers, paid the adoption fee and that was it! I had a new dog and he was JUST MINE!!!! He came home on the 6th but the 4th was the day he became mine. (He had to be neutered on the 5th and held over night)First time I saw him 28lb Parvo puppy right after we'd picked him up from the shelter. At home after the vet visit. (I treated his Parvo at home) And now he's a happy, healthy, 1.5 year old. Happy pack!

Congrats to you both - a match made in heaven! Gosh, he was really skinny after he'd been sick. Poor baby... Hope you both have a wonderful gotcha day!
PS - I'm still chuckling over his TV watching video...

Congratulations! Has it been a year already? I remember Chance's story very well. There was a time when you weren't sure he was going to make it if I'm remembering correctly.
He looked so sad and pitiful then and now he's the picture of health, cuteness, and happiness! Thank you for rescuing this sweet boy! And Happy Gotcha Day, Chance!
