Sugar

This is the latest member of our family. We saw Sugar and her brother last week (Wed) --just strays that I hadn't seen before. The next day I found her brother with a bullet wound. I took him to the vet but the vet discovered his internal damage was too extensive so we needed to have him euthanized. On Sunday, we found Sugar. Sugar was limping severely but otherwise fine. I believed she had been hit by a car and her leg was broken. On Monday we went to the vet. I was surprised to get a call a few hours after I dropped her off that she was ready to be picked up. No broken leg at all just really sore with a bad infection. I was so prepared for a broken leg and possible amputation that I didn't feed her after 9pm on Sunday night. Sugar is recuperating just fine!

I just LOVE this dog - it's soooo sweet looking. I'm glad you did a layout about him.
