Any "rescue" is an already baked loaf of bread. You don't know what you have and there is no way to change it. You can have paitience to let it sit on the counter as an ornament, taste it's flavor and develope an attitude of loving it regardless, cover it with a overwhelming flavor and ignore it's taste, or most importantly allow it to be who it is and create a world that it thrives in. If that is impossible look for the person who could accept this gift and love its message.
This dog "Dennis" sitting on my lap on a sunny day, was not wanted by anyone in Valdez and I took him for my friend for 2 monthly visits to Valdez. He could not find value in people and separated from their love never sitting on laps and ignoring their responses to him. But after tender joy and time he became somewhat house-trained responded to males for affection. Most importantly after recieving a encouraging opinion of his need, found a home with an equally unwanted young man who became changed with his losses in life through my Dennis.
You never know but you definatly try.
