Doug

Our 2022 Alum Doug has left this world but will always be in our hearts.  He came to rescue in November as a stray in Miami.  He was temp fostered by Brittany and Jay, and then Alli, and was described as an old man that seemed like he was a hunting dog that became too old for his job.  
​
In April he had major surgery to remove several masses which tested negative and recovered nicely.  However, last week he started having cluster seizures which were so severe he was unable to walk. The emergency vet was very discouraging as to the outcome, so they made the heart wrenching decision to say goodbye.

Doug was known for his typical GSP Velcro personality. He loved checking the yard for possible critters and even though he suffered from arthritis, it didn’t keep him from keeping the yard safe.  He was hearing-impaired but definitely not love-impaired. He may not have been with his family long, but we have no doubt he was loved more in that short time then during his life before rescue.

Our hearts go out to the Lebaron family for their tragic loss of Doug.
