My rescue:
Neighbor moved and left this guy behind. At 15 months with no training he couldn't control him, so they left him. Dog was highstrung, no socialization with either people or other dogs, slept under a bush his whole life.
Went and got him after they left and took him to vet. He had bad ear infections and heart worms. After he survived the heat worm treatment I just worked with him everyday. He bonded and if he already didn't have a name I'd have named him Velco! I can't go to the bathroom or take a shower without him being right there. If I go to town on an errand he'll laydown at the side door where I left and stay there till I return.
