Wayne and Carol called last summer asking if Laurel and I would foster a three legged dog. They had rescued a collie cross named Joe with a badly broken hind leg that they were sure couldn’t be saved. We took Echo, our one year old border collie, over to meet Joe and the two dogs got along famously. Joe was even trying to play with his rear legs held together. 

Through the special efforts of Dr. Lloyd Abbey at General Veterinary Hospital, Joe’s leg was saved. We started fostering Joe in late fall and knew right away that Joe had found his forever home. We adopted him in January 2007. Today Joe has become an integral part of our family pack.  Joe has been a great companion and calming influence on Echo. He really loves his walks at off leash and around the neighborhood. And most of all he loves to be brushed. 

If you have room in your home and your heart please foster or adopt a rescued animal from hart. It will add a wonderful new dimension to your life.
