My story

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

Antonio was found as a stray and suffered multiple fractures which has left him paralyzed in his hind legs.
Fortunately, this does not slow him down at all! Vets have cleared him medically! We understand caring for a paralyzed dog may seem daunting but Antonio has a wonderful routine and we will help you every step of the way! Caring for a paralyzed dog forms such an amazing bond and Antonio deserves to know that love and so do you! He LOVES other dogs and will likely do better going home with one. He's played with large dogs and small dogs. He also has a set of wheels that will go home with him! If you have questions please inquire and his foster will be happy to answer!
