I named him Hero

I was driving down a 4 lane highway in a
remote area, all the cars and trucks were going very fast and it was
raining . I don't know how I spotted him but as I sped along I noticed a
bony back in the tall grass. I pulled over and backed down the shoulder
( not a very safe thing to do). I found a very starved and banged up
little beagle, so hungry he barely noticed me as he nosed the grass for
a scent of food. I scooped him up went to the nearest exit and found an
animal hospital.
I called all the area shelters but no one
was looking for him I think he had been on his own for quite some time.
He had been hit by a car, his leg had been chewed on by something, and
he was starved nearly to death.
I brought him home and he spent 10 days at the animal hospital getting
healthy again.
I
named him Hero
I had a dog and two cats already and really didn't want a beagle, I had
read that they were a handful to keep.
I was going to find him a home but in just a
few days I was so in love with this sweet gentle guy that there was no
way I would ever let him go.
