My wife & I have 2 rescues. We started with rescues in 2014 when we moved into our current house, which has a fenced back yard and some nice neighborhood streets for walking. Our first one was a Corgi-Terrier mix about 5-6 years old, and was just a terrific dog - well mannered and started picking up tricks and play including frisbee fetch, which I loved. But 6 months later she got sick and after she didn't respond to initial treatments, an x-ray revealed advanced pancreatic cancer. They euthanized her that day. My wife bawled for a week and it was rough for me too. We don't have kids so in just 6 months she'd become our "kid".

We watched the 2019 movie Togo tonight (via Disney+). Wonderful story and not as sappy as some dog movies.

Thanks for sharing your story Paul and that must have been really hard. We rescued Rollo as a puppy...he and his littermates were abandoned with their mother when the pups were only a few days old. Our friends "hosted" them and sure enough, we went over to look and fell in love with him. A few weeks later, we took him home and he gave us nothing but joy for the next 12 years. If we get another dog, it will definitely be a rescue dog.
