Lil Red was the #8 dog from our 68-dog animal cruelty case back in September of 2024. He came in weighing a mere 22 lbs. and was in dire condition. He immediately stole our hearts.

I snapped the first picture, just a day or two after the initial rescue, of an exhausted Robin and a frightened Lil Red. Both were accepting of love and comfort from one another.

A few days after that, Krazy for K9's Rescue stepped in on Red's behalf and they've been fostering him ever since.

The day I took the 2nd picture in January of 2025 was his final visit with us before heading to his new home in Massachusetts. We weighed him in at a whopping 44 lbs.! We then decided to recreate that 1st picture which was so iconic of that terrible rescue. Lil Red didn't quite fit into Robin's lap anymore but it was such a great feeling.  Happy trails Lil Red!
