Hi... I'm Hoover. It's hard to believe,
but here I am!!
I've made my way into the hands of
angles and am now settling down for some
healing and pretty nice TLC. This is
long deserved as you can see I've been
left to survive on my own for a long
time.
I'm just a young dog, I think I'm
only
a year old! While most puppies weigh 50
or 60 lbs at some time in their life,
on the scale I am 59 lbs. I think that's
less than what I'm supposed to be. I'm
really, really tall (someone said I'm
so "leggy") so I have lots of space
for plenty more weight.
I'm a Bullmastiff although all you see
when you look at me is bones, ribs and a
bumpy spine. I will fatten up, just you
wait and see. The vet said I had all
kinds of intestinal parasites, I was
"infested", from being out on my own.
YUKKO!! With pills I am supposed to be
ok in just a short time. Being so alone
has taken away all of my strength. I
can't believe I made it this far... I
just need some sleep.
I've
been given
a mountain of blankets in my kennel, not
only for warmth but to cushion my little
bony body. They gave me a
wonderful sweatshirt so I would stop
shivering. I love it. I'm the kind
of guy who will never take it off, I'll
wear this sweatshirt all the time! They
are so nice to me here. They say I am
going to be fine and that someone will
take me home someday.
I have heartworm, whip worm, hookworm
and a bad cough. I guess I have kennel
cough. I'm pretty sad and ill, no one
took care of me until I got here. I'm so
lucky... they named me Hoover and
promised me a good life. I respect that
and promised them that I'll always be a
good boy.
