My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Lexie was found on the road, hit by a car. Her tailbone and pelvis were severely fractured. After 10 long days waiting for rescue to save her, Lexie arrived at Blackdogs where she was immediately taken to an Orthopedic specialist. Lexie underwent thousands of dollars in surgery and began a road to recovery. Lexie is able to walk, and have supervised exercise. She loves her rescue friends but is the boss of everyone. She hoards toys and gets first choice of goodies with dinner. She spends her days snoozing in her dog bed, playing with her friends and at night she becomes a little turtle under a blanket, popping out only for a belly rub and kiss. Lexies tail is broken but she still manages a wag once in awhile.

Lexie needs a special family resolved to providing her with some ongoing rehab while she recovers. Her adoption fee has been covered by a grant from the Petfinder Foundation via the Purina ONE Adoption Grant program. She has an upcoming appointment with her Orthopedic Surgeon and we will know if she is able to undergo a spay surgery at that time.

Lexie is very shy with new people and needs some patience. But once you have won her heart, her little face will absolutely charm you.
