AAS first saw her at night, lying in the frozen mud, being snowed and sleeted on, surrounded by her own excrement.  When we got her she was emaciated, dehydrated, and barely able to walk because of painful hips. Her coat was weighed down by clumps of caked mud. Neighbours told us that her owners were seen urinating on her from the porch.  We found her a home with two very special people, who loved her dearly, and made her a member of their family, which is what every dog wants more than anything, more than food, water, and shelter. And when her old hips gave out, her family got her a cart and took her everywhere. She went camping, and to the lake, and chased squirrels in her cart. And when she died, after almost two years of happiness, she took with her all her memories of love, and warmth, and good food, and fun. And the time before didn't count at all.
