ava & chrissy
Meet Ava & Chrissy @pnee19. "Ava, my oldest, came from a neglected home. One day I came home from work to see her in the yard next door to my house. I went and asked if they were looking for a home for her. The lady told me that she got her from another lady who had her chained up in the yard and neglected her. When Ava and I first made eye contact she gave me the look of 'please take me'. So we took her for a walk on the beach and saw just how sweet she was to people and other dogs and I knew we had to have her. At the time I was at wounded warrior battalion in the Marines from being injured overseas. I needed something to help get me up and going again. Ave has been that godsend and has helped me more than I could ever ask for. After I had surgery and was couch ridden, she would lay next to me on the floor and at times would sniff my wounds and lick the area like she was trying to fix me. She didn't leave my side and helped get me up and going again. It's been an amazing couple years and we ended up coming across a puppy who needed a home. We got Chrissy form a very rough neighborhood down here and the owner couldn't take care of her and was going to bring her to the shelter. So before that happened, we gave her a home. Chrissy and Ava are just the best of friends. I love bringing awareness to people that pits are not bad dogs and that they are misunderstood. I have changed many people's minds about pits by letting them see for themselves what loving dogs they really are."@pnee19
