Whiskey’s owner was faced with a difficult decision. After losing her job, she could no longer afford to feed Whiskey. Feeling devastated, she made the difficult decision to give him up at her local animal shelter.

As she handed him over to the SPCA Whiskey clung onto her so tightly, begging not to let him go. Being together for 10 loving years, they had a strong bond.
