My story

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


Tesla came to our camp in October 2020. I was in a very bad way crying, wailing and screaming out in severe pain. I figured no one could hear me high up in the mountains, but I was wrong. Everytime I would cry, a pack of dogs would chide in and begin howling, as if in solidarity.. I began calling out to them, thanking them for their sympathy. This continued all summer long until one evening at dusk 2 dogs came running into our camp. It was puppy Tesla, and the patriarch Doberman. They startled me, and I ran into my tent. They kept running around my tent until they slit it open. I fled to my car and slept in it hoping they would leave, but when I woke up Tesla remained, lying outside. I called the number on his collar, and the owner said, " he found his Mami. Do you want him? Please take him."6 years off grid and I have fallen ill. I wish a hunter, or family could adopt him. He is gentle and yet very protective. He listens and obeys. He is an old soul and loves everyone. He deserves luv
