Hi Everyone, my name is Sammy. I was surrendered to rescue last week because my family couldn't take care of me anymore. They adopted me seven years ago when I was three years old, so that makes me ten now. I guess I'm considered a senior, even though I still have the loving spirit of a puppy. I am a happy boy with a zest for life. I am super friendly, my natural tail is always wagging. Now that I'm in rescue, I've already received the medical care I needed. I'm UTD on vaccines, HW tested negative, I had senior blood work, a dental and X-rays of my hip. You see I have been limping for quite awhile, the X-rays showed I have a severely degenerative hip which is causing me pain and discomfort when I walk. I overheard the doctor say I will probably need to have orthopedic surgery, a femoral head ostectomy (FHO), but for now, I'm on pain Meds and a glucosamine/turmeric supplement to see if that alleviates the pain and helps my walking. I hope it does, because if I need surgery the recovery time is six to eight weeks. I'm currently looking for a foster home with NO STAIRS where I can stay for a few weeks until I am reevaluated. I get along well with other dogs but can't run and play. If you can offer me a place to chill, please complete an online application at http://www.nyabandonedangels.com/adopt-or-foster-application please mark for Sammy. I'll be checking my inbox daily! âŒâ•ï¸âŒâ•ï¸, Sammy
