Stories of redemption always seem to touch our hearts. When the underdog falls we always want to see them fight back to the top and rise again. Well that’s exactly what a program in Colorado allows abused and neglected dogs and prison inmates do together in an idea that’s had ingenious consequences.
In the program inmates who remain trouble free for six months are allowed to enter into a working relationship with abused animals brought in by the prison. They then nurture and care for the dogs until they are well enough for adoption. This process has taught even the hardest of inmates, such as Cynthia who was convicted of murder and jailed for life, the rewards compassion and tenderness can bring people.
