Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IDGSR WELCOMES VALEN INTO THE SAFETY OF THE RESCUE!!!!
IDGSR took Valen in when he was in a really bad situation, he was found in a ditch emaciated, starved and in really poor condition, we were told he was about 31lbs. he spent some time at a vets and then IDGSR found out about him and accepted him into the safety of the rescue. Valen as we now call him was 38.9 lbs on his paperwork when we got him. Over the following weeks, he has gained steadily and has eaten really well. This loving and sweet boy is great with other dogs, fine with cats and loves people.

Despite the horrific experience of being nearly starved to death, Valen still loves people. This darling will be available for adoption soon, pending his neuter which is very soon. If you would like to adopt this great boy, please apply with this rescue by copying and pasting the link below.
