Meet Snoop!
Meet Snoop everyone!
My fiancee and I got this little guy back in February after a local shelter posted that this poor boy was having his leg amputated and desperately needed a foster.
I was definitely nervous at first as we just moved into our first home and Snoop is our first dog together. I wasn't sure what went into caring for a tripawd.
The shelter told us that he had "trauma" (he was shot. They just didn't want to flat out say that) it completely destroyed his front right elbow which naturally healed with the joint fused together. He was found in rural Georgia using that leg as a crutch to walk around which they said was causing him a lot of pain. We had also found out that he still has 2 BB's in him and he was very much heartworm positive.
A few days ago we passed the 8 week mark of his heartworm treatment so he can start being the wacko lil puppy he is, he's 2~3 years old and ~55lbs. He loves to play and run around and I've even brought him to work with me a few times and he's super well behaved.
We honestly got so lucky that he is in our lives and gets around like he doesn't even realize he only has 3 legs despite him tripping every once in a while.
