My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
I'm Benny! I was born with deformities but my foster mom says I don't seem to notice. My front legs are bent and twisted and my paw pads developed on the tops of my feet. If you want to look at some videos of how I move around check out: www.facebook.com/animalhopeandwellness
There's a few videos where you can see that even though it looks like I would have a hard time I actually get around really great! As long as I have soft surfaces I can run around without any discomfort. I love playing with other dogs and toys are my favorite! I'm quite hyper.
As of now the vet says a surgery would only cause me a long and painful recovery which seems pointless considering It might not work and I'm so happy right now. Although, considering the way I have to walk and run on the wrong bones it's almost a guarantee that one day I will have arthritis or joint issues. If one day I need a wheelchair to make me comfortable The Animal Hope & Wellness Foundation would love to help the adopters get me what I need.
