Imagine living an unkind life for years and years; one that left you aching and unsatisfied. And right when you are rescued and hope to finally have that second chance, being given six months to live. Just six months.
That is the reality that this precious boy is facing now.
But while this diagnosis may seem devastating, dogs are mindful animals who live in the moment and don't understand the concept of time. Malachite Gem doesn't know that he's terminally ill and is focused on living his best life in the here and now.
