A heartwarming cuddle
My new friend, Fran, send me this dear photograph of her two rescue dogs. The black and tan saluki dog came to Fran with the name of Hunter. He’d been abused so his Fran, his new mom, gave him a new identity, Magik Hunter. She calls him Magik.
The whippet rescue dog has helped to calm and to reassure Magik. Of course his mom and a kind dog trainer helped him learn he now lives in a perfectly safe home. It took four to five months for Magkic to re-learn to trust. Now, as you can see, he loves his new family dearly. What could be a better Valentine pet photograph?

Remember to adopt a saluki dog from a rescue, ethical breeders like the one who raised Magkic went to great trouble to find and rescue this handsome and gentle dog. Millions of dogs in America die in animal shelters due to lack of a home. The number of purebred dogs has remained at a steady 25% for the past 30 years. So keep calm and rescue, give foster care, rehome and adopt dogs. Thanks for reading.

Thanks for being the FIRST to read and comment this morning. Have a fab day.
What a lovely photo. It warms the heart and makes me want to hug Farley.
Very nice photo – I’ve seen these dogs before but was unaware of their name – thanks for teaching me something new.
Adorable! Earl and Ethel do that all the time!
Aw, what a sweet picture. It’s heartwarming to know how far Magik’s come with his new loving family.
That pictures speaks volumes. So adorable!
Thanks for your note. Does Farley like hugs? Some dogs don’t.
Hey there you, Doodle Dogs! So cool that you learned something new about dogs! Great to read your comment too.
Would you be willing to share a photo of them snuggling? I’d love to post it here.
Thanks. I really love both Zoe & Magik.
