Our second addition to the family was a complete surprise. We found her outside our window howling like there was no tomorrow. She was at death's door, weighing less than 1 lb, flee infested and suffering from scorched paws. She responded well to TLC and, after 3 days living in the bathtub, tripled in weight. She was soon venturing out to explore her new home and forged an immediate bond with our faithful hound.
