CARA's Little Star

Zac

 

Submitted by: Karena Loudin & Joel Pierce

Story: When we got Zac he was 12 years old and living full time in a hedge in the backyard of a house.  He had a dog house and a dog run, but at 12 years old I felt that he should not live outside another Winter.  He was dirty and matted, but after a cleaning and trim looked great.  He was mostly blind and totally deaf, but that did not stop him.  He was very energetic for his age.  He lived with us for several years and got along great with our other dogs and cats.  At 16 1/2 years old he began having seizures caused by a blood clot in his leg.  He was not strong enough to over these at his age.  He was a great cocker spaniel & is deeply missed.
