So - our Lucy - a Shar Pei whose previous owners had neglected in diet to the point that she had lost her fur and was actually red hot to the touch just before we adopted her....
I'm pleased to report that constant attention to her diet, medicated baths and scrubbing the old stuff away - has paid off. Lucy is downy - she literally looks like a 30 lb. Easter chick. She has little white hair ridges all over her.
Just a minute ago, I was praising her and her new coat - remarking that she was so pretty - no longer the gray, emaciated thing we had adopted.
When I realized...
That was exactly what Brian's mother thanked for when I first met her.
"He's no longer gray. And not so thin. Good job."
I'm a rescuer. What can I say?
