Remember our previous post The story of the NY 101? Well, as we promised this is the story of Reggie, one of the dogs who were rescued from the puppy mill. Read what a beautiful life he is living now thanks to his new loving family.
Just as getting out of the Mill, Reggie got a warm bath as the dogs from Marjorie’s were matted with feces and dirt.
Reggie is learning to be a loved pet.
Reggie learned to accept love, how comfortable a sofa is and after training got access to the upstairs.
Reggie and his sister Kallie are a great team. She has helped him gain confidence and is a great friend and playmate.
Reggie is now an Advanced Trick Champion.
Reggie sailed through basic trick training, learned the piano and bongos in intermediate trick training and now can open and close doors and started skateboarding. Reggie is now certified as an advanced trick dog and learning tricks at the expert level.
My husband and I fostered, and then adopted Reggie. His fur was stained from urine and feces, he had parasites and vomited frequently. His legs were weak, he didn't know what toys were, and he seemed afraid of everything. This world outside of the filthy outdoor pens of the breeding mill was totally unfamiliar. He is not the same dog who arrived at our home... and thank heaven for it. Isn't that the point? Breeding mills, including the one in Harpursville, are about profit, not welfare. We hope through our petition and other activities to get the other 50 dogs out of that retched place. anybody want to take a moment, change a life? Please visit keesrescue.com and sign our petition! Sincere thanks to YourSpecialDog for telling the story! Mary Lynch
