Yesterday I met this amazing boy, his name is Sonny a 6 month old hound mix Trapawd. Sonny was born with a very short and abnormal right front leg. The leg was not usable at all, so the vet choose removed it to relieve Sonny of any problems he may have in the future with it. Open Arm's Rescue of WNY was contacted by a shelter in Tennessee to see if they could take Sonny in. They had heard that OAR had taken in another Tripawd (which happens to be my beautiful boxer Belle) and other special need animals. OAR stepped up and got him to NY! Sonny has only know what it is to hop on three and is doing great getting around. His temporary foster says he is even able to get up on the bed with help of a set of doggy stairs next to the bed. Now Sonny is ready for his next journey, a furever home. I am unable to foster Sonny at this time, but I have promised him that I would do everything in my power to find him his own family that can take care of his special needs and to keep him in good health. I know how wonderful the Tripawd network is, so I was hoping that Sonny's story could be shared and to help him find a family of his own. Sonny is going to make some family very happy. He loves to snuggle and play, he shows his appreciation in every kiss he gives you. 

To say that I am excited about Sonny being part of the OAR rescue family is putting it mildly.  Finding him his new family would just be the cherry on my sundae. And anyone that knows me, knows I LOVE my ice cream!!

If anyone wants more information or is interested in adopting Sonny please contact me. Darcirb2671@gmail.com
