Here's the story in a nutshell....... as told by Shelly of DOUBLE DOG RESCUE (Southern Chapter in Memphis TN)
My cousin works downtown Memphis, TN in a horrible area. This old man comes to his work everyday to dig through the dumpsters looking for scrap metal to sell. This sweet dog followed this man everywhere,
The dog was a stray that just took up with this old man. The man walks most places and my cousin would watch this man walk in the center of the median in the road and this dog followed him everywhere. No one else could touch the dog.
One day not long ago, the old man came to my cousin's work and the dog was not with him. My cousin asked where the dog was and the man started crying and told my cousin that one of the drunk neighbors a few doors down severely beat the dog with a tire iron. This evil, spawn of Satan snatched him out from under the old mans house and held him and beat the crap out of him with the tire iron.
My cousin said the old man can barely afford to feed his family. The old man said the dog was his best friend, but he knew that he could not pay for a vet and it was not safe around his area for him.
My cousin called me and I said bring him to me. So here we are!
Founder is heartworm positive as well, he had to have a blood transfusion also. Once he gets better we will treat him for heartworms and get him neutered.
