A Diamond in the rough: Sully

Meet Diamond-- now Sully. He is a little poodle mix who came to Red Lake Rosie's Rescue and soon we noticed he was blind. He was so frightened and would cower whenever we came near him.

We thought Diamond was an old fellow, however, the vet aged him at 4 years old. We had Diamond's teeth cleaned and had him neutered.

We soon discovered Diamond was a great dog, walking well on a leash, and doing little dances for us.

We took Diamond to the clinic and Julie gave him a great haircut and bath. Thankfully he then went to Crystal's foster care and she dearly loves this boy.

Here's a pic of Diamond on arrival. A very sad little boy. No comparison to his demeanor now!!

CRYSTAL SAYS:
I couldn't think of a name for our little guy that felt right. I told my son he is so persevering and brave and he said "How about "Sully" for the persevering Ann Sullivan (Helen Keller's teacher) and the heroic airplane pilot named Sully.

He sleeps on the bed, walks on a leash, is totally housebroken, finds his way down the deck steps to go out to the fenced-in yard. He stands on his back legs and dances in a circle when he gets excited.

Affectionate, smart, sweet, brave and happy little guy -- whoever ends up adopting this little guy is truly going to be blessed.

The very root of your writing whilst appearing reasonable in the beginning, did not really sit properly with me after some time. Somewhere throughout the sentences you actually managed to make me a believer but just for a very short while. I nevertheless have a problem with your leaps in logic and one might do well to fill in those breaks. When you actually can accomplish that, I will surely end up being impressed.
