Axel is a 3-year-old, 53 lb Rhodesian Ridgeback/Black Mouth Cur mix who has already proven he’s a true survivor. Found injured and in need of urgent care, Axel bravely overcame the loss of a front leg. Today, he’s fully healed and living life to the fullest—running, playing, and snuggling without missing a beat.
Why Axel is amazing:
Dog-friendly and enjoys the company of canine pals.
Potty trained and crate trained.
A champion cuddler who loves being close to his people.
Resilient, joyful, and ready to share his zest for life.
Axel doesn’t see himself as “different”—he sees himself as unstoppable. His missing leg hasn’t slowed him down one bit, and he’s eager to find a forever family who will celebrate his strength and shower him with love.
