Grover
Meet Grover, a sweet, spunky 1 year old black and tan shepherd mix rescued from a hoarder in Mississippi. The Washington Animal Rescue League took in 70 dogs that “had been confined to a 3 ½ acre property—some inside the house, some in pens outside, and some loose in the yard,” and “were covered with mange and suffering from a variety of other medical problems, including gunshot wounds.”
Grover was one of the luckier pups. His mange wasn’t as bad as the others, and he’s obviously been somebody’s buddy in the past, since he’s trained to sit and lie down. He’s just finished treatment for heartworm, and needs to rest for a couple more weeks, but then will be good as new.
He comes home with me on Tuesday, and I couldn’t be more excited.
Chris and I are headed to New York City tomorrow to spend the long weekend relaxing and celebrating the end of my first seminar at Norwich (Straight A’s!) and my birthday. I am so looking forward to the break.
