Neal and Buster haven't seen each other in a long ten months. Buster, a cocker spaniel mix, and Neal had traveled together to Tennessee from Pennsylvania, but Neal had to ride the bus home, alone. He is in a wheelchair and unable to drive, so could not find anyone to bring him and Buster home together. He then suffered heart failure (odd, huh, maybe it was from missing Buster, who he describes as 'his only friend'?), Buster was chained outside by Neal's nephew (who pledged to care for him), and left with very little food, water, and no shelter. A long ten months later, Neal requests help from CPAA, and they coordinate with DDB to bring Buster home. What an amazing Happy Ending for Buster and Neal!

Special thanks to DDB's Marie Belanger and CPAA's Zella Anderson and Mary Jo McClain for making it happen and for providing vet care for Buster.

We just got news that Mr. Brooks, the man in this video, has passed away. When he said they would be separated "Only in Death," that came true only too quickly. Here's a link to his obituary. http://www.legacy.com/gb2/thankyou.aspx?bookid=5678088168584

  • We just got news that Mr. Brooks, the man in this video, has passed away. When he said they would be separated "Only in Death," that came true only too quickly. See the info for a link to his obituary.

  • The deputy has filed cruelty charges, but it will remain to be seen if they actually go anywhere. I have volunteered to give him all our photos and go down to testify if he needs me.
