Meet Hades. He showed up outside my friend's door one day to adopt her, as her dog had been killed last year.
Hades looked hungry and pathetic, but was too nervous and scared to come close to anyone. While his history is a blank slate, we think it is possible he was abused. Over the course of a few weeks she won his trust and finally was able to get him to a vet to get checked out. With a clean bill of health, she let him into the house and he is now a member of the family. It took another month or two for me to even get these pics. He was so clingy at first, that any attempt to take a picture of him just resulted in a frame full of doggy nose. Now he seems to be pretty well socialized and happy to have a loving family.
As sweet as he is, you can see there's still one member of the family that's not sold on his arrival!
