Hi Steemit, I'm Beefy the publishing dog!

in #life7 years ago

In August 2016 we added a new member to the Working Class Crew – Beefy Ballard. Before coming to us Beefy had a hard life, but now he’s the best Mascot, Head of Security, and Chief Cuddling Officer any publishing company could ask for.

Sometime in 2016, things must have gone terribly wrong in Beefy’s life. It’s hard to know how it happened, but what we do know is this: last summer he was found wandering near-death in a cranberry bog deep in the Wisconsin wilderness. He was completely emaciated, and was bleeding from a serious injury to his head and upper body.

The amazing people at the South Wood County Humane Society picked him up and nursed him back to health. By the time we found our way there, looking for a new addition to our family, it had been just over a month and he had already pulled back from the brink. He was gaining weight, healing, and spending his days hanging out with the administrative staff of the shelter. Because of his extreme situation (and mild-mannered disposition) Beefy had not even been put up for general adoption yet – he was spending his days keeping the shelter office staff company.

He's a great supervisor!

But as we talked with one of the dog caretakers about the best fit for our home, a lightbulb went off above his head, “I’ve got the perfect dog for you!”
He was absolutely right. We visited Beefy several times, did a trial adoption to make sure he got along with our other pets, and transitioned him to his new forever home. It was really something to watch his personality change over the course of several weeks. Because of his injuries and time spent at the shelter, Beefy was very depressed initially. But as he became comfortable, he gradually changed into the amazingly fun and genuinely sweet dog we have now.

Thanks again to the great people at South Wood County Humane Society. If you are looking for a pet, be sure to consider adopting!
