Pet's Story
Champ was a 6 month old rescue from Vermont. He and his family were abandoned and locked in a house for weeks before being freed. Once authorities gained access they learned they were being trained to pit fight. After rehabilitation Champ was adopted by a young family who trained him well but had to give him up when they decided to have there own family. They felt he would be to much of a dog to have around a baby. Champ came into my life at 2 years old. When I went to meet Champ at the rescue I sat on the floor and his first instinct was to sit in my lap. All 100 lbs. Definitely love at first site for both of us. I am a disabled veteran who has gone through very hard and dark times. It was this dog who stayed by my side day and night unconditionally. He was a gentle giant loving all who came into our lives, human and animal. I tear up just thinking about him. I lost my friend in this past April. He was 13 1/2 years young.
