My age...
8

My city...
Charleston

I am the best ambassador for the Palmetto Rescue Brew Beer because...
I was adopted off of something called Facebook five years ago. I was living on the streets. Life was not great. If nobody wanted me I was going to a bad shelter. I got lucky. Someone wanted me just in time for Christmas.

Two years ago I was playing in the backyard and suddenly I couldn't walk! My back legs stopped working!

I was told I needed a very expensive surgery or I'd never walk or pee on my own again. How embarrassing! The vets said something about putting me to sleep if I didn't have surgery. I like to sleep. I'm not sure what that meant, but I didn't have the surgery. Mom and Dad said something about it being more expensive than their cars.

I still felt okay. It was weird being without legs for a while, but I wasn't about to let that stick. I am the male dog of my house. Three sisters. Had to get moving again!

Anyway, it took about six months, but my legs work again! I still have to wear a diaper, but who cares when you look this cool?

(And yep, I'm named after that ginger kid who played Ron in Harry Potter.)
