Rusty

Rusty was rescued from a home where he was tied to a dog house in extremely cold conditions because the family worked long hours. The family had found him months earlier at a local fast food restaurant running loose in the parking lot on a rainy night, darting in and out between cars and almost getting hit. The family surrendered Rusty to Tails of Hope and he was picked up one cold and windy afternoon, the same day that the weather forcast was calling for 8-12 inches of snow that night. At the time Tails of Hope picked up Rusty, he had somehow wiggled out of his dog sweater and had infected eyes from irritation from the straw that lined his dog house. He was taken into a foster home where he got the proper vet care that he was in desperate need of and fortunately found his way into the warm and loving forever home of Angela, who spoils him rotten. At this point, we still don't know who is luckier, Angela or Rusty, so we will call it an even tie.
