They were both abandoned on the edge of the desert, discovered by a rescue transportation van during a drive from Arizona to Las Vegas. They were just walking along the roadside.

Alppie showed signs of having been waterboarded, which led to severe respiratory issues. He became seriously ill, which meant countless hours in emergency care visits. 

I raised them for three months, giving them a safe place to heal and thrive. Eventually, they were adopted by a kind, wealthy ranch owner. Today, they live their best lives. I visit them twice a year—and yes, they have their very own doggie pool!
