Back in December one of our volunteers went to the Aynor area to pick up some small dogs for another rescue. While she was there, she also came across poor Scruffy. 
Scruffy had not had any vet care, his hair was completely matted, and his nails were so long they were curled like corkscrews.  The owner of the dogs was in the hospital after having a stroke and wasn’t going to make it. The wife told her she didn't like little dogs, didn't want them and that the matted one's name was Scruffy. So our volunteer picked him up and took him home and messaged us if we could help. 
She shaved him, groomed him and realized he was even missing a few toes.  We found a foster for the senior fella and soon got him to the vet and on the road to recovery. 
Scruffy was a sweet old man who was lucky to find his way out of that home and to us at PLP. 
When it was time for him to hit the "adoption floor", his foster mom told us she wanted to adopt him, and the rest is history. 
Thank you, Amber, for rescuing him from the hell he was living in and Susan for fostering and adopting! 
Scruffy is now happy and healthy. We got his teeth cleaned, he was neutered and will never be denied care again. 
Happy Life Scruffy, now Hank and Susan!! Thank you for adopting and not shopping!
