This is Cam!

Cam has lived at Pets Alive for some years now.

All animals are special, especially the ones Pets Alive has taken in. But there really is just something about Cam that sets him apart from everyone else.

Thrashing around his run day and night, Cam was a severe Fear Aggression case of which I am sure many thought nobody could approach. Well, somebody did. A man by the name of Pat Whitacre of Best Friends Animal Society.

With superhuman patience and care, Pat stood by Cam's run, with a funnel, and waited for the briefest of moments when Cam would calm down just for a split second and reward that moment with a treat - funneled in to Cam. Well, Cammy-boy is a QUICK learner! And he LOVES his food! Through a ton of care, patience and understanding, Pat was able to work with Cam and plant the seeds needed for his quality of life to be restored.

From the further efforts of some more incredible people, including John Sibley and Toni O'Brien, Cam's quality of life has been brought up tremendously throughout the years and continues to grow each day. Cam has made new friends, including myself, has had sleepovers with his favorite person in the world, Pat, and has even been taken out for ice cream!

Cam is a TRULY special dog, and an INCREDIBLE case of "No dog too far gone."

When invited into Cam's Circle of Trust, you feel it deep.
