Tripod Heeler/Catahoula/Border Collie? Mix Needs Help
Hopalong Cassidy was picked up running free by Animal Control. He was
missing a foot, and we have no idea if it was due to amputation, cruelty, or a trap of some sort. All we know is that he keeps trying to use the stub for support and it's getting infected. The vet recommends a full amputation of the limb. He's a very sweet white with black spots boy that weighs about 35 pounds and has the most gorgeous mischievous brown eyes. He's a young 2ish years old and has a great personality. You can view a pic here of Cassidy here. http://www.petfinder.com/pet.cgi?act...preview=&row=0 We have an angel who's stepped forward to pay for his surgery, (so he won't be immediately euthanized when his quarrantine period is up) but he is still in a shelter situation. He needs foster care to be able to recover from the surgery, (scheduled for Tuesday, August the19th, when he will also be neutered) and he also is looking for a forever home. Our shelter is located in the Memphis metro area. We do as good a job as we can working out of a city shelter, but our resources are limited, and ultimately we have to face the fact that as a kill shelter, overcrowding means that the less healthy dogs are nearer the top of the list. He's been registered with the Disabeled Pet Network, and I'd appreciate anyone who has any other links or networks to pass this along. I'd really like to find a rescue that could take him in and find him a home. You can contact our shelter at 662-895-5328 or e-mail us at _______________________________ Visit our homeless animals at www.obpets.petfinder.com/ |
