This handsome fella is Blizzard. My sister Cindy, her husband Robert, and my 11 year old niece Lindsey adopted Blizzard, then called Thor, from the Humane Society for Hamilton County (Noblesville, IN) last year.
Blizzard was a cruelty case, having been found abandoned and alone in a deserted apartment where it’s believed he’d been left for more than a week without food or water. We’re told he wouldn’t have lasted another day, but thankfully he was found, and he’s made an amazing recovery. In fact, he and Lindsey recently took second place in the Dog Obedience program of Lindsey’s 4-H Club! Not bad for a dog someone once discarded like trash, huh?
It’s Sunday, so I’m linking up with the wonderful Dachshund Nola, You Did What With Your Wiener, and My Life In Blog Years for Black & White Sunday. If you’d like to join us, you can link up on any of their blogs!
Have a wonderful week!

August 11, 2013 at 7:45 pmWhat an absolutely heart-warming story. I love that he was saved, adopted and won in obedience. Just goes to show you that a dog given love and a second chance can become the most amazing miracle. Congrats to your sister and her family for finding such a lovely dog and giving him that 2nd chance. Love the photo!
