Clarence was at the dumpster with 6 other puppies. They were very scared and Polly was only able to catch 4. 
She made several trips to the dumpster that cold night, and made a fire for them, however, only was able to get one more little black one- we named Clarence who looked very different from the others. He looked like a terrier wire-haired mix. Two of the puppies froze to death before we could get them.
So, Clarence and the others came to the RLRR shelter, and it was here that Clarence had his second brush with death. It seemed the other 4 did not include Clarence, and as an outsider, he wandered away from the strawed area and was found laying the next morning very near death.
DeeDee wrapped him in a blanket and rubbed life back into him, and later he was placed on a heating pad. Miraculously this little guy with so much spirit made it, was moved into Karen's house and would never have to be outside again. The other 4 went on to Pet Projects where last we heard they are doing well.
Clarence made a Christmas trip to his foster home with Anne who also has Elbert, another dumpster pup.

Yesterday RLRR received an envelope from Rescue Buddy Boarding & Beyond, Laura which had $685 checks marked "The Clarence Fund" which will be used to help pay people to help at the shelter. Thank you all for your generosity.
Oh my gosh, that's awesome Karen! I think about going out to the shelter to help but my physical pain is just too bad right now. I'm hoping it gets better some day. Meanwhile, I hope you find some help immediately. I especially think about you when it is SO COLD out!
