 
Hi guys
We adopted him about 3 years ago when he was known as Brian. After much debate we renamed him Archie. Unfortunately for us he came with a very vigorous appetite, which my wife indulged, and eventually he developed a severe case of pancreatitus. He spent 2 weeks at different vet hospitals (including Werribee) but we eventually got him back. With a strict diet and plenty of exercise he has made a full recovery and is a completely new dog.
We have sent you 2 photos, one of him holding hands with his girlfriend (our beagle x kelpie, Roxanne) when he was overweight, and one of him now. I think you'll agree that he looks much better now and Roxy certainly agrees. We love him very much, and he is a great companion and we find it hard to believe that he was left at a shelter.
We hope that others might read this and also rehouse some of the other wonderful dogs that shelters like yours have and experience how much laughter an adopted friend can bring to your home.
Kind regards Frank & Tina Descalco |
