Chilidog and vessel

Vessel was a rescue my Girlfriend rescued, he is the seal dog, Chilidog is a 3 legged love machine who was hit by a Ford f150. I saw his face on the lincoln county animal shelter, and immediately called and went and got him out of that place and into a loving home to finish recovering from his chili vs f150. I am a disabled veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan and I am not sure who rescued who.
