Lawyer’s rescue dog demonstrates lesson in trust
By Oliver T. Cook
Our last dog, Samson, died in June 2019, a month short of age 13. Because we’ve always had dogs, the search was on for another rescue mutt. My wife spent hours on PetFinder.com, a site that features shelter pets all over the United States.
While perusing Great Dog Rescue of New England, she found some possibilities and printed out a half-dozen sheets, leaving them on the kitchen table. The following morning, when I spotted “Brent,” a yellow Lab/cattle dog mix, I scrawled across the top: My kind of guy! Fortunately, he was her kind of guy, too.
