Michio came into the Caroline County Humane Society, MD shelter on October 24, 2009. Someone had called Animal Control to report a skinny dog in their yard - that dog was Michio. This is a picture of him on the day he arrived at the shelter. Literally skin and bones. It's hard to comprehend how he could stand up and walk.
People who work in shelters develop a thick skin - they have to in order to keep sane. But there was something about Michio that touched their hearts. The very sight of him as he walked through the shelter door made some of them cry.
It's a funny thing about some dogs - no matter how bad their condition, they remain resilient and have an such a will to survive. Michio is such a dog. And his story is inspiring and touching.
