These adorable gifts and apparel feature Angel who was rescued after she was dropped by the side of the road in the middle of the night, a helpless puppy left to die! Angel represents only one of millions of homeless animals which need a forever home. These designs are based upon a photograph taken of Angel by Terry Lynch, the President of GSDAR.
