Hi, Checkers! You have warmed my heart today, reading about your life. You are positively adorable and I can't fathom how you got that awful nickname of UD from that bad place where you came from. I'm glad you were rescued and are living out your days in a loving home where people appreciate you for the handsome boy you are! You have been through a lot and deserve all the love and affection you get. Congrats on DOTD! Enjoy your special day!
