Our Axe is home at last ...

... Many dogs settle well when they come to us. Yes, it's noisy, yes there are lot of dogs running about. Yes, you have to live in a cage for part of the day. But you get food, and if you're sick you get treated, people talk to you kindly and you get cuddles and love. For some dogs that's paradise, compared to what they've endured and experienced in their little lives.

But some dogs find it much more difficult. They may have known what it's like to live in a family so apart from grieving for their bosses they find life in a shelter completely alien. Others are just so frightened and traumatised that they take ages to even let you come near them.

Axe was one of those dogs. He had no chance at all. He as going crazy at the Refugio. He had such a hard time. But now - just look!  Our Axe is home - and he'll be loved and spoilt for the rest of his life. Isn't that wonderful!

Love from Axe and his new mama.
