00:00The whole area had flooded.
00:01There'd been really hectic, week-long storms, heavy rains.
00:06It turns out one of the garbage trucks
00:08had come in fast and hit her.
00:10And she actually had a broken hitch.
00:13Hi, sweetie.
00:14Hi.
00:15And this one's going to be in jail, right?
00:18Oh, the Indian one?
00:19Yeah.
00:19She wasn't interested, really, in this.
00:22She was more interested in trying to find food.
00:24She was starving.
00:26Come on, come on.
00:31She didn't resist at all when I picked her up.
00:33She didn't struggle, she didn't fight.
00:35I think she was so tired and in so much pain.
00:38I think dogs always know when you're there
00:40with good intentions and there to help.
00:47Hey, pretty girl.
00:49The next stage with Penny was getting her to a vet
00:52to be x-rayed to see what was doable for her leg.
00:55Hello, my sweet girl.
00:57Hello, girl.
00:58But it was fixable with rehab, so we needed to find a foster.
01:02And that's when I thought of Tam.
01:03When I first got her, it was winter time.
01:06So when I was coming home from work,
01:08she would be in her bed by the fireplace
01:11with the blankets over her.
01:12My sweetheart.
01:13And I think she was so tired from her life
01:16that she didn't get up, but her little tail
01:18would be wagging through the blankets.
01:20Hello, girl.
01:21She did this for probably about two weeks
01:25until she gained her energy.
01:27You're losing your legs so much.
01:31Probably one of my favorite things about her
01:33is she was such good friends with the cat.
01:35They were like best mates.
01:37Greens or anything like that.
01:38So there was a meet and greet with the family
01:40that had applied to adopt her.
01:42We immediately got an email saying we want her.
01:44And now she's so part of the family.
01:47She's her dad's best friend.
01:49Mom's protector.
01:51She's included in every outing,
01:53included in every holiday.
01:56We think she'd have been born into that life,
01:58but she has just adapted so beautifully.
02:01Yeah.
