I adopted B about 10 days after his left back leg was amputated. The leg was removed because it was causing him pain (probably because of the buckshot it contained). He's about 6 years old. He's doing great on "only" three legs. His mobility is good, he's very sweet, and although he's shy on first meeting other people and dogs, he quickly warms up.Â
Thank you for adopting him Margaret! He sure had a tough time but not anymore. He won the doggy lotto!
We appreciate your joining. Your future posts won't need approval so post away. And if you'd like to share photos we would love to see B! Here's how adding images works:
Basically you need to:
- upload a photo somewhere like your own Tripawds blog, or a public image hosting site like Imgur.com
- then copy the image URL (or just tap the image and copy it if you're on a mobile device)
- return here, and paste the image into your forum post.
Hope that makes sense. Let us know if you'd like help!
Sounds like B won the puppy Lottery by having you as his forever home! Thank you so much for taking him into your heart and giving him a chance to be the dog he was born to be.
We look forward to learning more about B and all of his adventures as a tripawd..
By the way, love his name!😎
Hugs
