They threw me out like last week’s dirty laundry! But I'm a special puppy and I'm a survivor!

My previous owner cropped my tail but then decided he didn't want me so he threw me out into a dirty, scary alley to die. I don't even know what I did to make him mad. When some nice people found me I was sick, hungry, thirsty and (I hate to admit it but) I had mange. They took me to the vet, had me de-wormed, got me antibiotics, treated my mange, fed me and healed my spirit. I'm now healthy as can be and my hair is really growing back (as you can see from my pictures). I've received my first set of puppy shots. I'm on heart worm and flea preventative and now I'm well enough to find a forever family.

The vet thinks I'm part Rottweiler, part German Shepherd and part lots of other things. I think that just means I'm a great catch! He also says I'll probably weigh around 60 pounds when I'm grown. I love to play and I love other dogs. I'm crate trained, leash trained and almost potty trained although I still have an occasional accident when the nice people don't listen to me tell them I want to go out.

I'm a good deal too! I come with a puppy starter kit that includes over 10 pounds of puppy food, a collar, leash, puppy treats, puppy toys, dental chews Pedi paws kit and a silk bandana. The nice people are even offering a scholarship fund for when it's time to get me fixed because we don't want other puppies going through what I had to go through.

Take a look at my pictures...you tell me. Do I look like a pile of dirty laundry?
