About Us
Festas, the Dog of the Day
Name: Festas
Age: Nine years old
Gender: Male Breed: German Shepherd, Golden Retriever
Home: Coon Lake, Minnesota, USA
 
   Festas is not special because he's been without a front leg for seven years, but rather, he is special because of his very loving and positive attitude. He doesn't focus on his handicap, but only his joy for life and squirrels. Festas will turn ten years old soon, and he still enjoys short walks, sniffing stop signs, eating hot dogs, seeing horses and car trips to Home Depot and Wal-Mart.

    Festas was adopted the age of eight weeks old from Last Hope rescue shelter. The injury to his front right paw was caused by a raccoon trap when he was just four weeks old. The farmer who owned Festas at the time named him Festas from the tv show "Gunsmoke" due to his limp.

    He is a miracle and a blessing to everyone who meets him.

   Take Care,
   Festas' Father and Festas
