Story
Sarah the Pug Chihuahua mix
Hi, my name is Sarah and I have quite a story to tell for one so young. I am only a year or so old, but had some bad things happen already.
First off, I was picked up by animal control in a neighboring town, but that wasn’t the worst part. They were pretty nice, and they noticed that I couldn’t use one of my back legs. My left one to be precise.
Anyhow, I was given to God’s Dogs Rescue and my foster mom took me to the dog-tor to get some x-rays to see what was going on. That wasn’t very much fun because they found that I had a broken pelvis from side to side and front to back. And if that wasn’t enough, I had my left leg out of the hip socket. It appeared that I and a vehicle of some sort had a disagreement, and I lost!
What a bummer! I spent the next month being confined and on pain meds to see if my broken pelvis would heal. And it healed very nicely, thank heavens.
Then, I saw the dog-tor again and they did surgery to fix my left hip so that I could be able to walk on all fours again. I was put back on restrictions for another month, waiting for this to heal.
FINALLY!! I have been released by the dog-tor to look for my furever home!! I am fully healed, and everything works as it should. Because of all the restrictions, I am a little shy with people, because I have had a lot of pain dealing with people recently, and I am getting used to being touched without being poked or prodded or given meds, etc. So please give me a little time.
I get along well with other dogs and even cats. I have been potty trained to puppy pads during my confinements but now love to go outside to do the deed. I am not fully trained to go outside yet but I am getting there. If you have a little buddy for me to play with, all the better!
I am learning how to walk with a harness and a leash and that is interesting so far. I seem to do more hiding and running than walking like I should, but at 6 pounds, it is easier for foster mom to carry me and that is not so bad.
If you can give me a furever home, I am ready!
