FOUR YEARS AGO, Davey was riding in the back of his owner’s pick-up truck when the truck swerved and Davey was thrown through the air.  He landed on the side of his face and sustained severe injuries to his jaw and teeth.  The owner then claimed that he had found Davey to avoid having to pay his medical bills.  Davey sat at the shelter for days without even pain medication until the vet who  had originally seen him found out.  She immediately went to the shelter, rescued him and got him the best care possible.  But after he recovered, Davey sat in a cage for months because the vet didn’t know how to go about finding him a home and aksed for our help.  THREE YEARS AND ONE MONTH passed.  We couldn’t understand why Davey couldn’t find a home, he was one of the best dogs ever.  But week after week, month after month, people passed him up.  Watch his video of the very first time he got a toy of his own -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3zmfqlcTr8 and playing with a small dog at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2MZKAD_5bA.  Davey turned out to love small dogs, and let them boss him around.  Check him out being bossed around by his little friend... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1JigoOZkAo.  Some people might have given up on a dog who couldn’t find a home for 4 years, but there was something about Davey.  He was a once-in-a-lifetime dog just waiting for someone to love.  And finally, one of our amazing adopters mentioned Davey to their neighbors, and before we could even catch our breath from excitement, within 3 days Davey was settling into his amazing forever home!  Davey now has acres of land to patrol with his “brother” Rico, and we are proud to say DAVEY IS HOME!
