Bam is dying...Lymphoma...we are dying inside. [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Ptah (a host of the The DU Lounge forum).

I'll make this short. My son rescued Bam, his given name, four years ago.
Jonas was looking for a female, a Husky-type dog...
Bam kept pressing up against his kennel, a black dog, male Pit Bull and Black Lab mix.
Each time Jonas walked by... Bam freaked out with love....wagging his whip-like tail...crazy.
Bam chose Jonas.
Bam was one - two years old at the time.
He was so difficult that he had been returned to the shelter.
Here are some pictures of his first day of adoption.
This is all for now....to be continued.









All for the love of a dog....till death do we part.
Four to eight weeks.....

peace~
