DENVER (KDVR) — For months, a white Australian shepherd could be seen frequenting the streets of Denver, prompting concerned residents to reach out to Denver Animal Protection , which had little success in capturing the slippery canine.
The ante was kicked up a notch when people began to notice the dog appeared to have been shot in the face. Then a community came together to finally bring the dog, later named Solo Vino, to the Denver Animal Shelter where he could get the help he needed.
