Rango

Last week, some kind people found a young dog in a rural area and took him to the county shelter, hoping he would be cared for. However, an emaciated, intact male pit bull, who also turned out to be heartworm positive, did not have a good chance of even making it into the "adoptable" section of the shelter, let alone finding someone to take him in. However, the heartbreaking picture of Rango made it onto facebook and Rango found friends. Within a couple of days, people had volunteered to pay his pull fee and neuter, get him from the shelter, fundraise for additional medical costs and, most important, foster him. By Saturday, when his 3-day stray hold was up Rango was on his way.
