Randy's account
Randy says Red was given that name by his previous owners, that he bought the dog for $100, and that Red is friendly but wary of strangers.
Illness and care
Randy says Red became very sick in summer 2025 and needed several veterinary visits. He reports paying about $500 in bills, which made things financially difficult, but says he did not mind the expense because Red survived.
Randy also says his brother has taken care of Red since Randy underwent two operations in 2026. He closes the recovery account by thanking God that Red did not die.
