Kuma before Kuma after
Kuma was abandoned by his original family at the age of 7 due to the owners getting divorced. He was tied outside in the family's backyard and left to fend for himself. His health was deteriorating quickly and he was close to 20 pounds underweight. Kuma had bilateral cruciate disease, was Lyme positive, hypothyroid, and emaciated. Luckily for Kuma, a local dog rescue, New England Doglift, took Kuma in and saw to it that he received the proper medical attention. Kuma is now 10 years old, 102 pounds, and looking as healthy and happy as ever. He was adopted by his foster family in September 2007.
