WATCH: Dog 'Forrest,' Once Shot, Left for Dead, Finds Home

Check out the Solon home of the dog who was chained to a tree and shot in Forest Hill Park

Robin Stone calls herself lucky to have been chosen to care for Forrest, and she said he's making himself right at home at her 10-acre Solon property.

Watch the video above to see Forrest in his new home.

The dog was chained to a tree and left for dead at Forest Hill Park in Cleveland Heights in November, where a professional dog walker discovered him.

Weeks later, the man police say was responsible for the act was arrested and charged with two misdemeanors and a felony.

He'll be arraigned this Friday in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court.*

*UPDATE: Clements has now been charged by the U.S. District Attorney's Office, and the arraignment mentioned above has been cancelled. Click here for more.

Agreed. New site is much too busy and/or confusing. Old format was easy to navigate and followRead More certain stories , a very cumbersome ordeal now. Thumbs down on the change.

I agree. I had even been tempted to start a blog just before this new and "improved"Read More layout. No longer interested in doing that - can't find anything on this patch.

That's odd. I was at the previous meeting, my first - on Global Warming, paid dues for the firstRead More time ever, wrote down my e-mail more than once, and still had no idea there was a meeting was last night.

Along those lines, Diane, I thought an indoor greenhouse would be a good idea. Classes on how toRead More create gardens, grow food, store and preserve food would be an asset to the City.

Diane H. Dreizen & bachtobroadway42 - what interesting ideas! I'd love to see the whole messRead More raised and the area turned into a public park/recreation area with walking trails, bicycle paths, community gardens, etc. It seems the wind turbines could be in a place like that too. That's my dream, but we'll probably get some hideous redundant commercial development instead.

Fantastic ideas. I think a combo of retail and new green technology would be awesome. This is aRead More chance for CH to be innovative and show that it's not about the bottom dollar - it's about preserving what we have. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHEN THE NEXT MEETING IS - I WILL BE THERE!!!

Just ignore them then. The important thing is what we're talking about HERE.

Please join the conversation. The proposed school bond would be a timely starting point!
