My Dogs.

One day I went with my friend Susie to see her horse. She had him at one little farm were besides him were some cows, goats, hens and two dogs. One was an old German Sheppard which was on chain and other dog was Doberman Pinscher in kennel.

Doberman was in very bad condition. He was literally a skeleton. His bones were swollen, his coat were gray instead of black and on some places like his ears there was no coat at all. Only skin.

When we came both dogs were exited, they barked but they seemed friendly.
I went to a kennel were was a Doberman. I could not believe that he is still alive. Farmer brought them some food in a bucket. But it wasn't a dog food. It was food for pigs. He gave them a mixture of leftovers from the table. I asked the farmer if he would sell the dog to me. He said he will give him to me. He agreed that dog can stay there until I find other place to keep him.
From that day on I went there every day bringing some food for both dogs. And when Susie took her horse out on field I took my Don and while we rode he was running and enjoying freedom.

Than I got a job at stables in Switzerland. I found someone who promised to care for a dog while I was away.
