Ricky (before and after)

April 4th, 2008

We found the cutest Chihuahua-cross up for adoption at Le Refuge, an animal hospital in St-Hyacinthe, Quebec. Sure enough, Ricky seemed like a great dog, he'd totally recovered from surgery to mend a broken leg and he was ready to leave for a new home. From the moment we brought him home, it seemed like he always lived here; he's such a good dog. Maybe he's grateful and he's certainly happy to have a small friend to play with.

At left, is a picture from last March at the animal hospital. At right, he's 18 months old (he doesn't like posing for pictures). —submitted by his loving Mommy from Montreal, Quebec.

Ricky's story is April, 2008's "Wags to Riches" feature. His buddy Chico was March 30, 2008's Dog of the Day.
