"This is Tripoli, my newest foster dog. He's probably a Shepherd/Collie mix, and he's about three years old. Tripoli was rescued from a rural area in May of last year. His right front leg had been severely injured at some point in his life, and he was unable to use it. Since it was causing him pain and couldn't be repaired, the vets decided to go ahead and remove it altogether.
So Tripoli became a three-legged dog. He's been in foster care for the past year, and hasn't had any luck getting adopted, so recently I took him from another foster home who lives far away so he could get to adoption events more often.
So far Tripoli is fitting in great at my house. He gets along well with the other dogs, does great with the cats, and even handles the stairs without a problem! I am surprised at how easily and quickly he has fit in here. Hopefully once more people are able to meet him in person he will be able to find a new permanent home quickly. I know whomever adopts him is going to be very lucky to have him – he is a wonderful dog. "

Looks like they're in a town called O'Fallon.
