When
Gander was found as a stray
in a remote First Nations community, it was discovered
that he had been badly injured. We assume he was hit by a car and the impact
broke his femoral head and cracked his hip socket.
This sweetheart has now under-gone extensive surgery and has had a femoral head resection completed, is in foster care in the Langley area and is beginning his medical rehabilitation which includes gentle stretching exercises and swimming to rebuild his rear leg.
He is approximately 2 years of age,
vaccinated, microchipped, de-flead, de-wormed and neutered, weighs approximately
49 pounds and is thought to be a Newfie x Border Collie mix .. much like a
"mini" Newfie!
Currently he is fostered with young children and cats and is a "bomb" proof youngster who adores everyone.
If you are home the majority of the time,
are committed to his physical rehabilitation and have a securely fenced yard
please drop Gail a note at
spiritsmission@shaw.ca to request an
adoption application.
Update: 2 Feb
Congratulations Gander on finding your new family! You will be kept safe forever, always loved and cared for. We know that you have many years of happiness to look forward to.
