My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dante, much like his namesake has been through hell and back. In November he was hit by a car and brought to a shelter. They shelter was going to euthanize him stating he was incontinent and unable to walk. Our rescue stepped in, and within days of crate rest he was walking and using the bathroom on his own. All the poor guy needed was time to heal.
Now he is using the dog door and even runs around the yard. He is getting stronger every day. And despite all he went through, he is the absolute sweetest guy.
He is neutered, microchiped, and vaccinated. He is 6 years old and weighs 21 lbs. He may be the only dog that looks worse after a bath and brush. Messy hair don't care!
