Look who received a clean bill of health from her doctor.
Her stitches were removed and she now weighs 38.7 pounds which is a gain of more than 12 pounds since she wondered up.

Timeline of her progress…

Today– she’s actually sitting in my lap outside watching my baby swing! 
Previous owner should be JAILED!

This past Thursday this little puppy showed up on my front doorstep
.
Notice the black wire? It’s actually embedded in her neck…
–After several attempt with bolt cutters we were able to get it and the other “collar” off of her.
I checked around but had no luck in locating her owner so I took her to the Vet, who immediately said she needed stitches. I left her there and they were kind enough to snap this pre-stich picture for me (if her previous owners want her back they’d better be ready to explain this to the police!) 
. 
A mere four days later with a neck full of stitches, all vaccines, an antibiotic and a heart worm preventative onboard and look at her now… 
Note: I’ve never been a pit bull fan but I’ve also never been one to abuse and or neglect any type of animal (I’ll never stand by and watch anyone else do that either!).
To the previous owner: TRY ME!
My Shoes are on the Loose
This is the first of a series of poems, rhymes and short stories featuring Deuce or “Papa Deuce”. Deuce was my mom’s lovely and friendly Wheaten Terrier. He lived to the ripe old age of fourteen (and a half) and although we were never fond of one another, I will forever be grateful for the years of happiness he brought to my mom.
My Shoes are on the Loose
Papa Deuce, Papa Deuce
My shoes are on the loose
I’ve looked everywhere
Even under Mimi’s chair
They’re not over here
And they’re not over there
So my little piggy toes
are cryin’ cause they’re bare
Papa Deuce, Papa Deuce
I have some happy news
I think I finally found
My favorite purple shoes
Oh no, oh no
Those are not my shoes at all
That’s just my little brother’s
Fuzzy purple ball
Papa Deuce, Papa Deuce…
My shoes are still on the loose!
