My dog is the greatest dog in the world! Hes a cute little Scottish Terrier, who we've had since October 31, 1991, when we rescued him from a small dog house, where he'd been kept for 1 full year. He was kept out in the sun, rain, and snow. When we went to get him, he had on and old tight leather collar, he was filthy, and he had chicken scraps for his food. He jumped up on me and left brown dirt stains on my white Halloween Costume. His hair was matted, and he was the sweetest looking thing! When we took him home, we noticed that there was a spot on his nose that was like leather...he had been eiather sunburnt or frozen. His paw was (and still is) turned out to the side, the vet said it was because it was injured as a pup, and wasn't set properly. Blackie was lost to us on December 18, 2003, he was 14 1/2, and we had him for 12 of those years - more than half my life. After a 9 month battle with cancer, Blackie left us. I miss you my baby....
