My story

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

Katy is such a happy girl, even though her life hasn't been so wonderful. She is one of the friendliest dogs ever, likes other dogs, and is always smiling.
She found herself in a shelter as a stray, but her family never came to claim her. We rescued her and found out she had a very bad urinary infection, and a bladder full of bladder stones. It was the most stones our Vet has ever seen. She was in so much pain. She had surgery, the stones were removed and we thought she was going to great.
We later on found out she was leaking urine, and it was caused by a medical condition she was born with, and has been living like this for years.
Katy is still a great dog, housebroken in every other way. She plays, she runs, she loves fetch.
Her foster Dad has made his kitchen with a tile floor, her room.
We are at a loss as to who will adopt her with this condition. It would be something a very special and patient person or family would have to deal with. A home with a secure fenced yard, maybe a porch, where she can spend time in. She can wear diapers,but she does tend to take them off.
She needs a Guardian Angel to give her a home where she can spend the rest of her life.
Please help WJVA find her that Angel.
