There is a special place in heaven for people like you ❤️

Bless you Lynn.

Your rescue is very lucky to have happened into such a good home. It's so rewarding to hear how his life has changed and now different his future will be compared to his past.

Logan doesn't yet know he won the Powerball lottery of adoptees! It was meant to be that you'd find each other.

Logan is beautiful and so are you. His bad days are behind him and he will flourish in your loving care. Yay for Logan and his new family.

Dogs are gifts and now Logan can be the gift he was always meant to be. Bless you, Lynn.

Those two are so cute!

OMG - that story just breaks my heart. I cannot find words to describe how wonderful you are to adopt this poor, sweet guy. Bless your heart Lynn!!

They’re both adorable and lucky to have you!

Hugs and kisses from all of us.

Congratulations! After I moved out, my mom and stepfather got a Doberman, and when I first saw her I was petrified. She lived a long life and was the sweetest dog I'd ever been around and she also learned human phrases, so easy to train. Her name was Chula, which in Spanish (step dad was Spanish) the name means, "Chula is a term used to describe someone as "cute" or "beautiful". It can also be used as a nickname or term of endearment. " Aww.

((((Logan))))

Oh Lynn! Bless Logan, bless you and your wonderful doggie adoring family!! Post pics of Logan with Teddy when you can, please.

It saddens me to think a human could be so cruel to an innocent animal. Logan and Teddy are so lucky to have you and DH to love and care for them. Many special moments ahead for all of you!

He looks so sweet!!! We had a Doberman growing up. Super smart dogs. Glad he will be loved and cared for.

thank you for saving him

Logan hit the jackpot after living miserable first years. I despise people who would do that to an animal. Sometimes I like animals more than people.

So happy for you and your rescue doggies! I hope the two are best of friends! How are they getting along?

The cruelty we are seeing in my area (NE Ohio) is just unreal! I have some of the local rescues newsfeed coming on my FB page and the things that I see are horrible! I don't understand how someone could be so horrible?! The rescues are just overwhelmed with unwanted and mistreated dogs and cat and even other small animals!

A lady at our dog park just rescued an adorable puppy from a rescue that took in two litters of lab/golden mixes. These breeders were getting huge money for these puppies but now apparently they cannot even give them away. She was telling me that if these litters cannot find rescue then the breeders are just having them all euthanized! So horrible! The puppy that she rescued was absolutely the most adorable little girl you'd ever seen! So smart and friendly and well behaved! So if anyone is looking for a puppy, contact some local rescues and see if they have any litters!

So happy for both Logan and Teddy, wishing you many happy years together.

Lynn, bless you! Logan has such a sweet face. The cruelty he suffered is over and he will be forever loved and cared for. And I have no doubt that he knows you are an angel. Thank you!

i don't have words i can put in print to describe what i think should happen to whoever abused this dog. thank God he was finally found and that he landed with you!!

he looks like at some point in his young life, he was loved and cared for. he has a lovely crop that someone took time to make sure his ears would stand properly. i just don't understand how a dog goes from being loved to being so abused.

his life going forward will now be perfect and i'm sure teddy and he will bond very shortly. congrats!!! you have a huge heart and that is SO nice to see! 💖

That poor thing. He has no idea how much his luck has just turned; there could not be two better people to make his life happy and healthy.

What a sweet face. I'm so glad he's found a loving and caring home. He deserves it. Here's to many years of joy for both of you!

He does look so sweet. So happy for him and y'all.

Lyn, you are truly a hero! I hope you, Logan and Teddy feel all the (((hugs))) coming your way!!!

What a sad story, but I am so happy that Logan can now live a good life with you.!

Thanks for rescuing him!

You're doing a good deed! What a happy new beginning!

Nothing better than a new pup in the house. He and Teddy will be so happy to have someone to play with whenever they want! Congratulations.

Oh, now I need a tissue! Sweet boy!

Me, too, bpath! 🥹

How can people be so cruel? They lack the gene for empathy. This sweet dog went thru hell and now has a loving forever home and hopefully he'll soon forget the horrible cretins who did this to him.

It's all goodness ahead for him. He has obviously hit the jackpot, and will live a wonderful life from here on out.

How wonderful to witness a beautiful dog get a new life. I look forward to seeing more photos of him living his amazing new life!

Our 2 cats are rescues. I wish they'd forget what they've been through.

It was hard to read your story and see the image in my mind. I’ve got a question: If they had found a chip on him with owner info, would that person have been charged?

I’m thrilled for your boy that you found each other. May he live a long and very happy life!

I’m glad Logan has a loving family. Animal cruelty is a huge problem and needs to be a crime with legal consequences.

That dog is lucky you found him and will give him a safe, loving home,

Animal cruelty is too prevalent anymore and should be prosecuted to the max. I rescued a ginger cat who was there because of a domestic abuse and cruelty case. She was never reclaimed and spent months in the shelter. It was only after I rescued a young male in April did she ever come out of her shell. She never entered our big family room connected to the kitchen in five years. Who knew it would take a young cat to do this but the change is crazy. She's now super affectionate and doesn't bite anymore and is so much calmer. I'm sure she was abused by the male as he abused the woman. All you can do when you get a pet like this is make sure the rest of their life is a good one.

A Doberman! The very best dogs. I wonder where he came from to start. His ears and tail seem professionally cropped. Honestly, what comes over people to be so cruel? Couldnt they just have dropped him at an SPCA?

Have you been following the story of the Dobie breeder who was murdered? Yikes. I hope at least his puppies are found.

Thanks so much for taking inLogan. Im sure he will return your kindness many times over.

My husband mentions the dobie breeder every day.....and hopes the puppies, who were chipped, help find the connection to the murderer. THAT is just awful.

I totally agree about the terrible murder of the Doberman breeder and the welfare of those poor puppies. My fear is that they were stolen for use in those dispicable dog fighting places. Heaven forbid!!! That’s what they think happened to our recent Doberman rescue, Logan. That he was stolen to use like that, but being such a gentle guy, he proved not to be good for them ( those horrible j**ks🤬)! And so they tied him tightly to a tree out in the middle of nowhere and left him to die😭. Thank goodness some horseback rider happened to spot him and called a Doberman rescue group! And, he’s now and forever our much loved fur kid.

Bless his heart, and yours.

Love love love this.

Lynn, we have only ever had rescue dogs, over the years we have had six with as many as three at a time—- always two. Charlie, one of our current dogs, weighed very little when he was rescued along with several other animals after an anonymous tip. They initially thought he was a puppy, but the vet determined he was actually at least two years old; he had a tapeworm and other horrible gastrointestinal problems from eating dirty baby diapers to survive. After he came to live with us he tried to attack any man with a beard or wearing a baseball cap who came into our home or yard . We had to keep him crated when any workmen came, and still leash him ten years later when people he doesn’t know come over. He was on doggy prozac for several years. He fought with our other two dogs for food and we had to feed him separately. It’s taken many years to rehabilitate him and we stuck with it even with grave reservations in the early years because none of that behavior was his nature or his fault (he’s mostly Maltese). Today he is a loving pet and friend and adores our grandchildren. I’ve often tried to think of a punishment that would be appropriate for his abusers and I can’t think of anything bad enough that is legal.

Congrats! Love those eyes.

Congratulations! I love Dobermans. It is even more sweet knowing he came from such horrible abuse and has a loving home now.

I just took in 2 rescue horses. One is a Saddlebred named Nimbus, who was a former show horse, and then a broodmare. She is 19.

The other, a Quarter Horse, named Egos Patriot Doll, who was a race horse, then a broodmare but they both ended up at an auction and were bought by kill buyers, who ship horses to Mexico for slaughter. Doll wasn't producing enough milk for her last foal, so when it was 3 months old, they sold her. Small wonder. She was in deplorable condition.

Nimbus has completed her rehab and looks beautiful now. Doll has a long way to go, but she is doing better every day.

Oh Marilyn, theirs is such a sad story. . . but with such a happy ending! Thank you for sharing it with me, it made my day!!!!

lynn, what a gift Logan got with you and you with him!!

this makes me angry and then so grateful that there are good people in this world. many blessings to you and the rescue group!!
