My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Note: No small children.
My mommy was a Puppy Mill Dog in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. For those of you that don't know what a Puppy Mill is or what the dogs' lives are like in a Puppy Mill, please click this link > Puppy Mill My Breeder is registered with the USDA. Yep, these are the same people that inspect the meat on your dinner table! I guess in the eyes of most there is no difference between a dog and a cow! My breeder not only bred Great Danes, but Bloodhounds, Miniature Australian Shepherds, Yorkies, etc. Anyway, when my siblings and I were old enough we were listed with a distributor, Pinnacle Pet, in Missouri. I do not remember if we actually went there or not, but I do remember a really long ride in a big truck. We stopped in several places and I finally ended up at Petland Hilliard on Nike Station Way. When I arrived on May 19th I was checked out by their veterinarian and on May 26, just one week later, I was purchased!! Petland says I was "adopted" for a measly $2549.99 plus tax!! I was NOT adopted, I was purchased!! Why do Breeders and Pet Stores lie and say the dogs and cats are for adoption? Click here to see my > Adoption Certificate.

We were NOT for adoption, we were FOR SALE!! We were sold just like the meat in the grocery store! Everyone, from my breeder, to the distributor, to Petland made money off of me!!! Petland did nothing to educate my owners about the needs, habits, and cost of a large breed dog. If they had, I may not have ended up homeless (but luckily in a rescue) before I was a year old!! My human owners had purchased me on a whim. They had just found out that they were expecting another child, and with the 3 yr. old son at home, what better time to get a puppy to grow up with the children!! She is now 8 months pregnant and without a fenced yard it just got to be too much. They decided I had to go!! SO, 2 days after Christmas, I found myself homeless!!

When I arrived at Harlequin Haven I put on a brave act. But the other dogs could tell I was scared and depressed and they all welcomed me with open arms! They were all telling me about this fat man that showed up the other night wearing a red suit and gave them all brand new toys. To top that, some cute little girls and their mommy baked and brought them all muffins. The other dogs even asked Grandma at the rescue if they could share their new toys with me, but Grandma told them not to worry, that Santa knew I was coming and left new toys just for me. And yes, I even got a muffin!
