A Second Chance for Annie

Annie showed up at the school I worked at. You could tell she was old, super skinny, no hair on her back, fleas, and a tumor hanging from her stomach. The principal asked me to take her to the animal shelter near our school. Instead I took her home. Put her in the bathroom with food, water and a blanket, until I could come home and bathe her. Took her to the vet, he said she was at least 14 and would not have survived another week on her own. We had her for almost 2 years. She was the sweetest, most loving dog. We got her a t-shirt to cover her "dangly" as the kids called it. Everyone loved her. We had to put her down about a year and a half later, she could no longer walk on her own. But she knew she was loved and was part of a family.
