Dog needs a prosthetic paw!

Donation protected
I am a Feist mix, born on April 25th, 2015. I lost my right front paw because I had to chew it off to free myself from a bear trap.  It was a very traumatic experience, but I am strong willed, and very thankful to be alive.  My owner was a hoarder (with 22 dogs) and most of us lived on our own in the woods. Life was pretty awful until the animal rescuers came and took us to a shelter. However, there was not enough room there, so some of us were taken back to the woods where we had lived for some time fending for ourselves.  My sister Sallie and I were two of the lucky ones.  We were rescued by Almost Home Animal Rescue, based out of Maryville, Tn.  We are now spayed, vetted, and have a wonderful foster mom and family, waiting to be adopted by another loving family. For the first time, we feel safe and loved.  Life is good.  My leg has healed, but I cannot run and play with my sister and the other dogs. The University of Tennessee Veterinary School is able to fit me for a prosthetic, and send the mold to an outside company for the actual prosthetic. I look forward to being able to walk comfortably again, play, and live life to the fullest. I will be forever grateful with your help in getting my new paw.

Love,
Callie
