I looked the Tollers up and they are ADORABLE!!!

Putty was special and I wanted him to live forever. The picture posted was from his first day of chemo. I think if you search for "Putty basset hound" on YouTube, his video is still there of him playing in the yard with my husband seven weeks into his chemo.

After he passed away, I didn't think I could love another dog. Everyone said we had to adopt again and my sister sent me a "letter from Putty" telling me that I had given him a good home and that I should give his home to another dog.

So, we knew we wanted to adopt a dog that would be less likely to be adopted, one with more expensive medical needs or not as popular with families. Sarge had been in rescue for a year with no interest. He was really scared of a lot of things at first, but now he's a totally different dog, and a total sweetheart.
