As everyone probably remembers, Dennis is a rescue who was found wandering, starving and nearly hairless, in a canyon with three other vizslas. Recently we received some pictures of his brother Scooter (née Jack), another of the rescues. Here’s a side-by-side filmstrip of them. The top two pictures are from around the time they were rescued; the rest are from happier times. What do you think? Brothers? We think so too.

Gosh, I hope nobody swaps you out in the middle of the night because you are total twinners. So happy that both of you found good homes.

Dennis, you are one lucky dog, I’m telling you, because I think I would have fainted dead if I had had to live in a Canyon especially if it didn’t have any closets or bathtubs for me to sleep in you know I’m a little crazy like that because afterall if dogs were made to sleep in canyons they wouldn’t have invented closets and bathtubs, right?

Definitely brothers, but there can only be one Dennis! That was the first time we read the story about Dennis and his siblings finding a home. We used to foster greyhounds and I can remember distinctly when I knew that the one who was a foster and then became ours. When was it you knew Dennis was not a foster and was already home?

They’re not just brothers… they’re clones! Dennis and Scooter must’ve been made in some secret government lab to create super-dogs!
