We are happy to report that Bingo is a winner again and has been ADOPTED!!!
Think about how much this poor dog has endured over the last year…Marion County Animal Rescue League in West Virginia posted on a rescue network that friends had come upon a house that burned down over a year ago. The people moved out but never took their dog. He had been chained outside to the debris and nail-covered boards with no shelter for the duration. The neighbors had been feeding him, thinking the owners would come back for him. That week the property was to be sold at the courthouse, and this extremely friendly, smooth Saint Bernard mix in miniature (approximately 3 years old and 63 lbs.) would be homeless. He would be sent to the local animal control with virtually no chance of being adopted there, which implied he would be put down. The post read that despite his ordeal he loved people, other dogs and cats. Scrolling down were photos of Bingo tethered to the debris in the snow. Take a look. That’s all it took.
On Saturday evening January 28th, we picked him up in Stamford, Connecticut, the last stop on a rescue transport. Bingo was still wearing his filthy old collar. He had traveled the last leg with his head on the driver’s lap. As we tucked Bingo in at Last Hope in Wantagh later that night, we promised him, he would never be cold or neglected again.
