Story
Have 2 dogs, brothers. 5 years old. I have a doggy door going out to the patio they use for their “business”. 5 years ago my friend was breeding her dogs for sale, $1800.00. She had one in the litter that no one wanted because he had a short front leg. She couldn’t keep him because HOA rules. One day while watching the puppies I thought one of the puppies was “bullying” the little one with the short leg. But In fact he was pushing him up against the wall, teaching his brother how to walk. I was amazed. So for me to not want dogs again, because of my age, I took both of them. That little guy can do anything that his twin brother can do….. I’m now almost 80 years old, in a Walker & looking into senior care facilities for myself. It breaks my heart but I need to give my 2 dogs to a loving home. They HAVE to go together
