Buster I NEEDS Sponsors My name is Buster ... it isn't the first name I've had, but it is the one that comes with the best memories so I'd like to keep it.  One day my human drove me to an unfamiliar neighborhood and dumped me on the street ... I couldn't run fast enough to catch up as he sped away.  I spent the next several days approaching every car and home hoping for a familiar scent but nothing!  Now very hungry I spotted a human sitting in his car in his driveway.  Dare I approach!! The gentleness in his voice told me this was someone I could trust so, not wanting to miss the opportunity, I quickly jumped in his car and licked his face in a gesture of my appreciation. I spent several days with him, his wife and other dogs.  I got lots of food and plenty of petting and I felt safe there.  I wish I could have stayed but with other pets to care for, they couldn’t keep me. So, the search began. I was a young 1 year-old guy and it was obvious that I was never taught any manners.  I have a lot of energy and love to jump up and try to give you kisses. At my size that can be intimidating to some people.  An opening was available at a training facility where I was to spend the next several months, so my new friend took me there.  Unfortunately, I did not care for the demands placed upon me during the training process, and I was deemed unpredictable when I failed to meet their expectations. I didn't mean to be a naughty boy but you see ... I was abused as a younger dog and was most likely being trained to fight.  One injury was so severe that I lost my right eye. Naturally, I don't trust all humans, and that setting just didn't bring out the best in me. Remember that guy in his car that I told you I could trust?  I WAS RIGHT!!!  Through his family's love and determination I now have a new home at Smiling Dog Farms.  I reached my destination thanks to a terrific pilot and his friend who flew me the 8 hour trip.  Smiling Dog Farms is a sanctuary for dogs like me! They say I can live out my life here in peace, along with the many other animals on their property.  I'm happy to be here. I have a nice big play yard. The people are good to me. And I feel safe because I know I’ll never be abandoned again.   I would be so happy if you would like to be a sponsor for me!
