Skipper's Tale

Our daughter found this scruffy wet dog in the rain outside a drugstore just a few days before New Years 2007...she brought him home and we took photos and made posters of him and plastered the area around the drugstore...we also listed him on every lost dog site we could find, plus with area vets...we took him to be checked for a chip, no such luck...after the holiday we took him to our vet and found out that he had very serious heartworm...that's when we decided that he was part of our family now...he was treated immediately...It was hard to keep him still for almost a month...he is my husband lap dog and has a big brother (Great Dane/Rottie mix) and sister (Border Collie) plus a playmate Maine Coone cat...and now he's living happily ever after...
