Sadly, Logan was adopted and returned as his new owner became ill.

Thank you to Dr. Linda Abbott, Lynn Mcgrew and Staff for taking such great care of Logan and Simba during their treatment. And “Special” to Foster Mom, Rona for taking such extraordinary care of Logan, which truly took time, dedication, patience and unconditional love.💗

🐾💕GOOD NEWS PUPDATE FROM KING’S DAD🐾💕

“JoAnn, I’m forwarding to you a webpage from a local camera store that runs a weekly contest. This past week the theme was dogs. There’s a long story behind these photos and how they ended up as winners in the contest. Briefly, I took the black and white photo of King on my front porch. The color photo was taken by a neighbor while I was walking King near the neighbor’s home – that’s my leg and foot in the photo. I didn’t know at the time that the photo was taken – telephoto lens. But the combination of the two photos has led to King’s being crowned by the camera store as “King of Warrenton.”

King is now a “Superstar” and Crowned, “King of Warrenton.” Such a precious and deserving senior guy. King had a rough life until Jim drove from Virginia to Florida a few years ago to adopt and provide an extraordinary loving forever home.

We love these heartwarming pupdates from our adopters. They bring a smile to our face and warm our heart💗
