After the entire family sat on the back porch shivering in the cold and bundled in sweaters this morning with the dog, Jason quietly snuck back into the house and said he'd be back. He was going to the neighbors to talk to them. Even at the time, his silence said so much. I could tell that this man of steel had been touched by this little life...
The owner wasn't home but her live-in mother was. She acted as if she were afraid he was there to turn them in for having dogs (we don't think they are allowed to). Jason assured her that he didn't care and tried to stress that we rather enjoyed having the little one over and that our girls had grown fond of her. She said that they were only taking care of the dogs for a short time for someone that was ill and the dogs were just too much. Jason offered that if they couldn't handle all the dogs that we'd be happy to take the little one in and of course she was shocked. But that was all that was said. Jason asked her if she'd mind if we cleaned her up and she said that what ever was fine....so....we began the ultimate doggy make-over...
The parts I am holding up are her ears, the rest is matted up fur, poor thing!
