Yes, vigilance is crucial when protecting your fur baby from heart worms. Sawyer will have another antigen test done in November. I know in my heart that he will test negative

Thank you, WaterWitchin! Sawyer's rescue works both ways -- he needed me and I needed him.

When I first saw Sawyer at Peggy Adams, I couldn't hold back the tears seeing him so skinny, tail tightly tucked under, patches of fur missing due to a skin condition or food allergy. He also had scars on the underside of his ears from insects chewing on them. When his beautiful eyes looked at me, I knew immediately that Sawyer was finally going home.

Thank you, Cheri! I agree that Sawyer is a handsome guy. His tan coat and floppy ears are so cool. He also has the signature webbed paws of a "water dog". Sawyer has a perfect mix of the best qualities of Yellow Labs and Black Mouth Curs.

Shame on those people who treat their animals so badly. The lack of empathy is astounding.

I agree 100%. It's astounding how full our shelters and rescues are now with animals needing help. A large % of them in our US shelters are surrenders or returnees, too. It seems like it will be a never-ending problem. That truly breaks my heart

Your kind words mean the world to me and Sawyer. This very special dog has bonded with me and that is such an awesome feeling! I wish I could attach videos of him happily runny free, splashing in his new doggie pool, and pestering his "girlfriend" KitKat Kandi. You would be smiling with joy, I'm sure
