What's up dog?
Diesel was a neglected and badly treated rescue dog
He was deemed dangerous and impounded for many months
However
this was not his true nature
Diesel was saved by forever friends Animal Rescue who had a dog behavorist access him
She found him to be a kind and gentle dog who was a victim of his bad ownership
Forever friends and the behave rust and a lawyer went to court to save Diesels life as he was sentenced to death as a dangerous dog
They sourced a supreme court
injunction to save his life and they won
He was released to the behaverist on a 12 month good behaviour bond
thats where my son fell in love with him
spending every moment he could with Diesel they both healed each other
My son had just lost his best mate and two friends in a horrific car accident
but Diesel and him had amazing bond that led to Diesel becoming a Therapy dog for headspace and helipng many troubled youth
