A Three-legged Dog!

I met a new friend at Orchard Point Park recently. I don't remember his name now but was told it by his owners. Ah, was so pleased to see the owner comment (see below). His name is Hans! He is such a good dog, friendly and easy going. And though he is handicapped by the loss of a leg, he gets around remarkably well. I learned he is fiercely loyal to his owners and is ready to come to their aid when needed. It is good to have friends like that. Hans is a rescue dog and not having had him very long, his new owners are sometimes challenged with his unpredictable behavior toward other dogs, hence the prong collar on some walks. He is fine with people and doesn't usually have the collar on. I just loved getting acquainted with him.

Thank you for this great shot, Vern! It was wonderful chatting with you and reminiscing about Eugene. To Bea, Carter, and Liz: Hans is a rescue dog and not having had him very long, we are sometimes challenged with his unpredictable behavior toward other dogs. He is fine with people, hence the prong collar on walks. I remove it otherwise...especially for photos, he is the sweetest dog ever 😊!

A lovely looking dog, but like Liz I wonder about that prong collar too.

Such a beautiful and expressive face. Love those grey whiskers too. Great job on the shot, Vern.

A good friend.

Beautiful dog and nice photo. However, the idea of his wearing a pinch collar really bothers me. What was the reason?
