In the industrial area of Lynwood, California, rescuer Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy 29, had been overwhelmed with emotion on Wednesday when she arrived at another heartbreaking dumping ground for dogs, no longer wanted by their irresponsible owners.
And there they were; the two Huskies dumped in the same area where Hall had just been earlier in the month saving other dogs, who also had been heartlessly tossed away and left to scavenge for their food and to hide from predators. There they were – snuggled together. The two had somehow made it through the noise and danger of the fireworks. No one knows how long the dogs had been there, but at least they had each other.
Suzette went over to the two dogs and gave them food; but before she could turn around, the two dogs had already jumped into her vehicle. And even though she had no one to foster the dogs or care for them, she knew she could not leave them behind.
I knew i just couldn’t leave them there. They were so happy to be in the air conditioning. The sweet babies snuggled up together and fell fast asleep

So where was Suzette to take them? She drove around and cried until she sat up straight. wished for help and arranged – at least for one night, to house the dogs at her veterinarian’s office kennel area.
But fate stepped in!
And then thank God to my friends at Promise 4 Paws helped me get them into luxury accommodations
And when we got there these two babies were still sticking together, giving each other kisses

It had to have been a mysterious canine promise to each other; because they were sticking together through it all. The larger Huskie, dubbed King, was in very poor condition. He had a temperature of 104 degrees, and during his first night at the vet defecated part of a kitchen glove. Sadly, that wasn’t the end; x-rays showed that parts of the glove were still inside of the dog.
Both dogs were infested with fleas, and they are being shaved slowly because of the pain involved. Their matting was so horrific, the dogs could barely walk and move. King remains on intravenous fluids and antibiotics as he continues to undergo a series of tests to help diagnose and coordinate a treatment plan.
The first $1,000 has been raised for King and Kaylee, but the treatments continue as do the expenses.
