Please meet Levi and his honourary pal, Uncle Buck. Here's his story in his own words!
If you have ever wondered about fate I can probably tell you a thing or two about its existence...
During December 2006, 6 beautiful chow/shepherd mix puppies were rescued from Hutchinson, KS. You can read more about their story here- Cutest Dog Ever. As fate would have it, their rag-tag team of rescuers became close friends and watched all 6 girls grow up in wonderful, loving homes. The original story had 2 male pups from the same litter getting adopted in their home town, it was the females that were unwanted and saved from a kill shelter.
Well, as fate would have it, a member of the original rescue team just happened to search Hutchinson's petfinder listings wondering if someday a brother or mother or father would appear... when one day, there I was. Could it really be? The picture was passed around and it was agreed that there was a strong possibility that I was a brother to the 6-pack. I was the right age, build and weight, similar face to Lena and Letta, and same ears as Lea, . It was confirmed when Lena's mom asked Lena if I was indeed their brother after showing her my picture and she kissed her mom on the cheek! What else could the same rag-tag team of rescuers turned friends do but try and save me as well?
I will be picked up and transported to Nebraska on Sunday, 10/14. From there things are a little unknown but I will be safe, warm and out of the shelter, that much is for sure.
Please read about my sister's story here on Cutest Dog Ever. It truly is an amazing story filled up hope, happiness, foster failures, and forever homes, hopefully my own happy ending will be written soon as well.
And as long as they were heading to Kansas they decided to also save the skinny, scared looking GSD on the shelter's petfinder site too. As some of you may already know, two of the original 6 Pack cheerleaders have GSDs. They love the breed! His name is Uncle Buck and he is an owner surrendered German Shepherd Dog. By looking at his photo you can tell he is underweight and most likely was not cared for properly in general. We are coordinating with a different set of official rescues to place Uncle Buck in an experienced GSD foster home where he can get the help he needs until he finds his forever family.
