Today is Hagan's first "Gotcha Day"!! Just thought I'd post!
I can't belive I've had my sweet German Shepherd for a year now!


When I adotped him he was due to be euthanized....he was aggressive, had no clue how to act around people, had no idea how to play with dog toys (that took a few days to teach him), weighed only 48lbs and was incdredably emaciated, heartworm positive, had an upper respiratory infection, giardia, and was in septic shock from 2 severly infected puncture wounds that had gone untreated. He was "unadoptable." I'm glad I insisted on seeing him! He's been the most amazing best friend a gal could ask for!
He's since made a full recovery and has passed all of his obedience classes
He's more than doubled in weight and is still growing!
(He was around 8-10 months when I adopted him....so that should put him around 20-22 months now. He'll be full grown around 24 months.
)

Thankyou everyone!
I think my little man had a good first "gotcha day!" He got lots of yummy treats and a massive rawhide that's almost as big as he is. (Kinda funny when he gets it stuck in doorways and starts whining
)

I have tons and tons of pictures of Hagan posted on facebook. I'll have to post more on TCS for everyone to see though!
