Candy – For Charity

This is the seventh image of rescued / adopted animals from one family. The images were amalgamated into one of three larger images two ft by three ft. They were eventually individually printed and given to the Humane society to auction off at their largest annual fundraiser the Bow Wow Ball.

This is from one family member;”Candy was a purebred German Shepherd who was found wandering in the ditch south of Brokenhead Indian reserve just north of Winnipeg.  She was completely caked with mud, milk, and weighed only 55 pounds.  She was just a wreck, afraid of everything and everyone.  Friends of ours were her rescuers, we’d just bought our house in Belair and had talked about having a dog.  So she became ours.  It took months to socialize her, dealing with her fears and apprehension of everything.  She was afraid to eat her food so she had to be  coaxed.  Gradually she became the wonderful loving, playful, aggressive when necessary German Shepherd we knew she could be with lots of love and attention.  She was a truly great dog, we had her for 10 wonderful years.”
