Hachiko, we cannot imagine anyone ever abusing such a pretty pup as yourself, and we are sorry your life started out that way. Then they didn't even give you the medicine to prevent heart worm, so we are glad they caught it once you were rescued. We are glad you love you new momma very much, and think it is fine if you are leery of some people right now. We know with time, love and positive attention, you may learn to trust again. But for now, you just concentrate on getting better, and staying healthy, okay? And please stay away from porcupines, you don't need that pretty face all scarred up! You are a beauty, and today is your big day as Dog of the Day!
