Hey all!

I need to stay off Petfinder, since I'm not actually looking for a second dog at this time, but I use the excuse that I might be able to spread the word about some super duper tripawds in need of homes!  And I have...

First, is rear amputee (hit by car), @ 1 year old, pittie/pibble, Xavier

His Petfinder profile:  https://www.pet...../30000004/

His rescue's website: http://www.petf.....IL629.html (not a group I have experience with personally, so proceed with reasonable caution)

His adorable picture:

Second is not a tripawd or even likely a future tripawd, however he needs humans who won't balk at his unusual set of limbs, or helping him recover through major surgery, so I thought of the Tripawds Family!

 

Crash (ironically not hit by a car) has had surgery to correct physical deformity in his back legs and will have surgeries on his front legs (paid for by his rescue, even if adopted first) - to relieve pain and discomfort! 

Crash is a young Pittie/Boston Terrier mix, according to his profile: https://www.pet...../29477850/

His rescue's website: http://www.petf.....IL476.html (not a group I have experience with personally, so proceed with reasonable caution)

And just look at that face:

Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.

He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

It's Gerry's 5 year adoption anniversary.  In his honor, I'm giving Xavier and Crash another plug!  They're still on Petfinder, crossing their paws for their forever family to come get them sooooooon!

I hope my title isn't getting these boys overlooked by anyone.  They're not a package deal at all - I was just being lazy and posting about both at once.

Both (individually) are still waiting for their furever families!!!  And if you're one of them, well you're just lucky I can't afford to scoop them up myself or they'd be long gone by now.
