Trooper, the dog who survived being dragged behind a truck for a mile and was rescued by the Missouri Humane Society, will soon have a permanent home in Chesterfield.
However, it’s not because he is being adopted by a family in the area, instead the tough pup’s photo will hang in the Doggie Hall of Fame in the main entry walkway of the future Taubman Prestige Outlets.
Taubman participated in the Humane Society’s annual Bark in the Park event last weekend, where the company hosted a booth to take portrait shots of dog owners and their pets. The photo session cost $75, with part of the proceeds donated to the Humane Society.
