10-29-16: Baratheon was heartworm positive and on death row at Aiken County Animal Shelter. Shelter Animals Advocates The Heartbeat Goes On pulled him and treated him for heartworms. This poor pup had been shot in the foot with a 22 before we got him, and because of how his body healed around it, we were unable to remove it. His new family surely doesn't mind though! They plan on taking him on trips to the river and lake (swimming is easier on the leg than long walks while still providing exercise) and providing lots of at home cuddle time! Today, 29 Oct, Baratheon has been officially adopted! Yay! Let the heartbeat go on!
