My story

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

My name is Walker and I’m a sweet-natured Hound looking for a compassionate soul with a big heart who would like to care for a special needs dog, either on a foster or permanent basis. I was rescued from the side of the road after being hit by a car. My injuries left me with the inability to use my rear legs, but after treatment to stabilize my spine and a long stay at an animal hospital, I returned to the shelter and then to foster care for a few weeks where I made significant progress. However, at this point it is unlikely that I will regain full use of my legs. Accommodations have been made to my kennel; I get around well with a custom set of wheels, which go “home” with me; and volunteers at this small, private shelter have been trained to help with my physical therapy and exercise routines. Throughout this entire ordeal I have never complained and have maintained my sweet disposition, but I need more attention than our handful of volunteers can provide on a continuing basis. What I really need now is a forever or foster home where I can receive loving attention and care and have some wide open spaces where I can “wheel around,” enjoy the great outdoors and get plenty of exercise. If you or somebody you know feels as though you may be good match for me, please contact Margaret at 843-869-3869. Thanks!
