Kizmet, the Dog of the Day
Name: Kizmet
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: Dog
Home: USA
 
   Our family adopted Kizmet a year ago from a local shelter, we think he is about three years old. Kizmet's life didn't start off very good, he was kept in a very small outdoor kennel 24 hours a day. His owner would throw Kizmet food from a porch and used a hose to give him water. Poor Kizmet had very little human contact. Neighbors had complained to the dog officer, but because the owner was giving Kizmet food and shelter, the dog officer couldn't seize him.

    Kizmet needed a miracle and he got one! New neighbors moved in next door and they were horrified at the life this sad little dog was having to endure. They gradually earned the trust of the owner and he reluctantly brought Kizmet to the shelter. Yeah, Kizmet was free!

    Kizmet needed a lot of patience when we brought him home, but it was well worth it. Kizmet is a great dog!!! He is very active and will play, play, play! At night Kizmet will crawl under the covers with us and snuggle close. We are so lucky to be able to share our life with this wonderful little dog. We love our Kizmet!
