Neglected Dog Literally Puts His Paw In The Hand Of His Rescuer!

http://blog.theanimalrescuesite.com/duffys-rescue-neglected/

Duffy was found in a puppy mill. He was severely matted, starved, and neglected. Yet, you can see this dog is a fighter and has a heart of gold. He literally puts his paw in the hands of his rescuer. His amazing transformation makes me believe anything is possible!

The Animal Rescue Site was founded to provide food and care for rescued animals in shelters. With a simple, daily click of the purple "Click Here to Give - it's FREE" button at The Animal Rescue Site, visitors help provide food and care for rescued animals. Visitors pay nothing. Food and care is paid for by the site's sponsors and distributed by charity partners of The Animal Rescue Site. Visitors can help more by shopping in The Animal Rescue Site store. With each item purchased, shoppers funds food and care for rescued animals in need. The store offers a wide array of items to show your support, as well as fair-traded and handcrafted items from around the world.

I am so disgusted that something that is supposed to be human can do this to an animal. Disgusting. So glad he found health and a loving home.
