📖 Rescue Story
Mango was found shortly after being hit by a car. At the time, there was no immediate assistance available from local authorities, police, or emergency services, so his rescuer stepped in and brought him to safety.
He was rushed to a 24-hour veterinary hospital, where an MRI revealed a severe spinal injury. Veterinarians determined that his spine had been damaged, leaving him with paralysis in his hind legs. To relieve his pain and give him the best possible quality of life, surgery was performed immediately.
Today, Haedeun is living in a foster home where he is learning what family life is all about while continuing his rehabilitation.
Despite his injury, Haedeun has never lost his bright spirit. He clearly spent time living with people before his accident and remains incredibly trusting, loving, and devoted to humans.
Mango doesn't let his wheelchair define him. He is a happy, affectionate dog who is ready to share his heart with a family of his own.
❤️ Mango is looking for a forever family that will love him just as he is. ❤️🐾
