Who is this Lucky Fellow?!

The news we had hoped for is in - Triton is finally getting a place he will be able to call home forever! He is an 8 year old Dalmatian that has had a pretty rough life so far. And yet through all he has endured, he remains one of the gentlest, kindest Dals ever.

Triton was found tied to a dog house laying in the dirt outside of a trailer in Central Florida. He had been there for at least a few years that we know of....maybe his whole life. He was then placed in a home with a nice person who helped him but due to her own circumstances could not keep poor Triton either.

Through an ad we had placed in the paper for another of our Dalmatians, we got a call from a nice gentleman who has had Dalmatians in his life before. This man keeps his dogs for life. He saw Triton and just couldn't turn him away even though it's obvious he's not had a life of luxury.

After a visit to our vet today, it was confirmed he has arthritis, has a hemotoma on his ear that has already healed (should have been taken care of when it happened) and has an old injury on his back that looks like the results of a sharp blow years ago. We don't even want to know what happened...all we know is Triton is home now and will be given the best life he could ask for!
