a place to love dogs

Submitted by orthopets: This is the sweet and amazing pit bull Carter. He was abused as a puppy and his abuser left his broken femur untreated for 5 months. When he was rescued they thought his right rear leg would have to be amputated. But after surgery and a lot of rehab he regained the use of the leg! Unfortunately there was some irreversible damage to both back legs, so his new mom who works for OrthoPets had some braces made for him. Now he is running around like a crazy boy and hopes to one day be a therapy dog! He loves life and lives every moment to the fullest. He is a great example of how we all should live our life!

Submitted by Shawna L: Our 2 year old Pit Bull mix Preston with his favorite toy. We adopted Preston shortly before Thanksgiving from a local Pit Bull rescue. He was found abandoned in the inner city. Once in rescue, in a foster home setting, he flourished. An amazingly affectionate boy who loves everyone and everything he meets. Every dog and even every cat he comes across he is determined to make his friend. Polite with food and toys he is a terrific ambassador for his breed. He was awarded the honor of being featured on his rescues Christmas card this year and was even featured in an article written by the Best Friends Society about HB 14 here in Ohio that just went to the Senate to put an end to breed specific vicious dog laws here in our state. All that and he still remains humble, goofy Preston! Preston is up for Mascot Of The Year for the rescue organization he was adopted from, the Lucas County Pit Crew. You can vote for Preston by going to their facebook page at Lucas-County-Pit-Crew and ‘Like’ their page and vote for Preston. Voting is open from Jan 26th - 30th. Original Article
