My two rescues. The black shepherd I personally rescued, the mastiff/hound mix is a pound rescue. The shepherd had heartworm, the mastiff mix was healing from an imbedded collar.
I've done a lot of other fostering, and taking in strays and finding them homes.
A friend of mine operates a rescue in the Turks & Caicos island. It is near and dear to my heart, because most tiny Carribbean island nations have no humane laws, and canine disease runs rampant because people dont vaccinate, and people bring in unvaccinated purebreds from DR puppymills, and it spreads to the potcakes. (WOW that was one hell of a run-on sentance!) Our next dog will be a potcake!

The rescue and adoption stories are heartbreaking and heartwarming all at the same time!
