Samson
samson was a Katrina dog that had to be given up by his woners when they lost their goat farm because of the flooding. He tested positive for heartworm and was refused by the New York SPCA, saying they would only euthanise him and the other 7 dogs that came in on the transport. That wasn't good enough for the Chemung County SPCA, a small humane society that not only accepted all the dogs on that transport, but made sure that every dog was well taken care of. I picked Samson up from there and he was eventually placed in a loving home near Oneonta, NY where he received the very expensive heartworm treatment. Today Samson is a very healthy and happy house dog.
