This poodle is at the Baldwin Park shelter in Los Angeles. He's a semi-shy but very sweet little guy! He was in my lap, super cuddly and cute. His age is listed at approximately 4 years old. He has an old broken or possibly just severely injured leg. He did have a cast on, and after it was removed at the shelter, you can see that it just sort of flops around and he doesn't use it. He doesn't seem to be in pain, but he does need an x-ray and evaluation as to what's the best course of action. It's possible that a vet would recommend amputating the leg. The shelter is not able to do it, so it would have to be done by the group or adopter. He can be pulled from the shelter if there is a group or adopter willing and able to take him and get him the care he needs. He is young and sweet and in a kennel with another small dog. Contact kellih@bestfriends.org if you can help. Thank you
