Here's a dog's tale with a rock ‘n' roll twist straight out of the heartland.
When the Nebraska Humane Society took in a bright-eyed 6-year-old Husky earlier this month, little did they know a hero was in their midst. They named him “Bret Michaels,” as the Omaha-based shelter was currently giving unnamed rescue dogs rock star monikers. This specific name was a given because, ironically, the person who found the dog roaming around and brought him to the shelter was named … Bret Michaels.
When Bret the Husky got a checkup, “they had noticed he was losing some weight,” said Alec Rose, a digital marketing manager at the shelter, told USA TODAY. So the staff there tested some blood and everything looked normal, he said.
