"I figured I had served the household well, and that I'd be a fixture around the house for a long time to come, ya know.  We watched a lot of "Jeopardy" and "ER" together, and that was cool.  I didn't mind so much that the dog jumped up on me and barked when the kids were rough-housing.  And it wasn't such a big deal that I got a little Gatorade bath during the Superbowl when the rugrats tried to do the "Dirty Bird".

But when the day came that they gave me to The Salvation Army, I figured it was all over.

When I came off the truck into the rehab center where men are working to beat their drug and alcohol addictions, it seemed like a happy place, but, ya understand, it was strange and new to me.

That's when I met Moses!

He gave me a hot steamvac bath, with deep cleaning brushes.

He gave me a fresh deodorizing shampoo.

He rejuvenated me.  I had a new spring in my cushion.  I felt like I had purpose again - a new life - just like the Salvation Army's rehabilitation program gave to Mo!
