Story...

 

Rex escapes his executioner

 

By Rochelle

 

Rex has a remarkable story. He was an injured one and a half to two year old German Shepherd no one seemed interested in.

 

At the time, I had lost a shepherd a year prior, we had her for 12 years so her passing was very sad. She was living at my Moms, and my mom was alone, something I couldn't see.

 

So, kept looking for the right dog for her. Finally, I found him, it was Rex, but my ex said I should check with my Mom before getting him for her. I knew he was the one, but thought my ex was right, so went home and called her to ask her. She was excited and said to go with my best judgment, and that I knew what she liked. But, the shelter was closed, and the following day he was gone.

 

A couple of weeks past, my Mom came out and I suggested we go to the shelter. We went and there to my surprise was Rex. I got excited and told my Mom this was the one I was telling you about.

 

We found out he was going to be put to sleep, but because he was so obedient the vet couldn't put him down and was given a second chance. I told my mom this was a sign and that he was meant to be. My mom agreed!

 

My mom loved him and adopted him right away. He had a fractured leg, guessing this is why no one was interested in him. We rubbed his leg all of the time, and sure enough it healed and is doing well. We still rub his leg for him to this day, he's really spoiled and loved.
