King Wyatt came into rescue last month. He was alone in a shelter, 16 years old, and in terrible shape.
His first bath showed hundreds of fleas going down the drain. The fleas had done such a number on his skin. He felt better right away.
He has come a long way-- he's discovered cabinets! If one is open, in he goes.
He found that people loved him. He loves soft beds and looking out windows.
He has discovered toys! Okay, don't you just want to kiss his face!
He still hates baths, but he gets them daily to help heal his skin.
Another vet visit? Really? Yes-- because you are worth it!
His foster parents had to go to the Peke meeting, so he met the pet sitter. He was in love.
King Wyatt is an old man. Should we rescue old ones? YES! They deserve it as much as young ones. And we love these senior dogs. Life has become good again for King Wyatt-- and he knows it! Thank you to Kay and Claretta for all the care and love they are giving him. It shows! 💙

Oldies are Goodies :)
King Wyatt struct my heart and pierced it immediately. Old dogs are so deserving of a real life of ease with plentiful food, a warm and secure home and LOVE LOVE LOVE.
It looks like King Wyatt got all of those things because a rescuer took time to learn his history and reached out for him. Matthew 25:31–46
I feel that the Bible verse from Matthew 25:31-46 covers these elderly dogs as well as humans.
“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’”
The “least of these” refers to those in a variety of needy situations. They include the hungry, thirsty, impoverished, sick, and imprisoned. In this context, Jesus is speaking to those on His right, that is, the righteous. The needy are called Christ’s “brothers”; thus, the reference is to the righteous helping fellow disciples. Jesus said that those who cared for such individuals were not merely serving other people. They were serving Him.
Just WOW !!!
