I have actually met this sweet dog.  She is a rear leg amputee.  Very sweet and calm.  Again, we just aren't quite ready to adopt; but I wanted to pass her information along.

I spoke with her fosters and they tried having her leg reset (it had been broken and healed without being set before they found her).  After several tries they had to amputate.  She is not very big at all.  I think she came up to about my knees, head maybe a little above.  

Jac and Angel Spencer.  Spencer was 5.25 years old. He fought a grade 3 fibrosarcoma, started on his shoulder.  Left front leg amputated in August 2011.  15 weeks of chemo finished 12/22/11 (mytox and adria).  Lung mets found on x-rays 12/28/11.  Started carboplatin 1/6/12. Went to Heaven on 2/27/12. I miss him like crazy every day.  See his blog here:  http://spencer.tripawds.com/
