My late boy Jake was also scheduled to be put down within 12 hours when we made the call to adopt him. He traveled for 8-ish hours from NM to CO in a van to get to us… then took the biggest fucking shit on his first walk with us.
We were used to like, medium dogs, and he was an 80-lb pit bull and pointer mix. An immovable object if he wanted to be. An unstoppable force because he just couldn’t help himself.
My husband and I looked at the shit, look at each other… and said “Ok, buckle in.”
9 years later, when Jake turned 13, we said our tearful goodbyes as he wagged his tail and ate his last meal, a bacon cheeseburger.
I’m so glad he got to spend his life with you. It fills my heart to know that Jake got a chance to receive all the love he deserved. He looks like he was a very good boy.

I love you, Jake. I still think of you.
Our beager (beagle boxer) Della has the same energy. Short, squat, and dense
