     • This is an incredible story about a dog who was recently rescued, we call him Rusty the Diamond in the rough. Rusty did not look lively or sweet at all when he was first met by Jared Piper. But one day Jared determined to make a breakthrough with Rusty and wanted to say hello. It ended up that Rusty, who was greatly craving some human kindness, and was simply alone and also seeking a new friend. After a warm reception, Jared started to stop by daily, and Rusty became more and more friendl, eventually putting his head along the fence and wagging his tail for treats every time he saw Jared.
