If you start a ping list for updates on the condition of this poor dog, please put me on it. Thanks in advance.

Heartbreaking situation.

I was always afraid of GSDs until my best friend had one that I grew to love. She used to play with my Golden Retriever and she helped “train” him. Both doggie friends have crossed the rainbow bridge now, but they were great companions when in their prime.

I would take this dog in a heartbeat, if I lived closer. He would NEVER live outdoors and never want for anything. I don’t understand why anyone keeps a dog out of doors. My DIL does, and I don’t agree with her. Her family has allergies, but I think that’s just an excuse. Luckily they live in SC where it is wrmer, but I still feel sorry for that poor dog.

Two day update on Louie from his foster mom:

Day 8 of Louie’s new life... Louie went to rescues adoption event today to be microchipped and meet several members of his fan club. He did very well, but was very happy to come home and help his Daddy with chores. He’s now taking a snooze after his busy day.

Day 9 of Louie’s new life... Louie had a pretty uneventful day. This is him chillin on his bed on the deck off of our bedroom... Tomorrow morning he will go to our vet for a hydrotherapy treatment. Then he will be anestized to have his ears scoped ( they might be so full of dirt and garbage he will need surgery) and he will also be neutered. This Mama is going to be a wreck... Please pray for both of us.

Day 10 of Louie’s new life... Although I’m sure today was his least favorite. This morning he had his hydrotherapy treatment. This afternoon he was neutered and had his ears scoped. Good news is, the neuter went well and no surgery on his ears. They were able to remove all the debris and dirt without surgery. They flushed his ears 6 times, but got it all. I’m a wreck that he can’t come home until tomorrow, but I hope having his favorite bed, blanket and toy will bring him comfort. Can it please be tomorrow morning already?
