Vander

If "V" is for Vander, "V" is also for victory because that's what describes this boy's life since he arrived at Rescue. Along the way, he met lots of guardian angels. There was the public shelter that called us after he had been left with wounds over much of his body, a missing right ear, and major infection in both his left ear and in the right ear canal. We became his second guardian angel as we answered the call to help. We cared for him and helped him heal. And that was made possible by many, many other guardian angels who were the people who donated to his medical fund. A fourth guardian angel appeared when a foster family agreed to take him into their home and care for him while he recovered from his injuries. And that's where victory comes into Vander's picture because he was victorious over all the pain and suffering that he endured over the past months

Vander's foster family showered him with love, affection, and attention and in return he showered them with the same. There was some worry that he might lose his hearing in both ears but the good news is that it was saved in his left ear. No doubt about it, he'll hear you call his name. He'll hear you say that you love him. He'll hear you give him the usual doggie commands of sit, down, and stay. (Yes, he's a very smart boy!) And he'll hear you when you ask him whether he'd like to live with you forever and ever!
