Buddha needs to run!!
Donation protected
About 5 years ago Buddha was hit by a Semi and taken to the Vet..his owner at the time was told
of the extensive reconstructive surgery to be done to his face and the amputation to his leg. They told his owner that he may not make it. The owner left and did'nt return.
During his rehab at the vet, Buddhas new owner saw him outside doing the tripod thing and had to have him. Buddha is the sweetest dog and has been a wonderful addition to his family and besties to his daughter. Buddha goes to work with him everyday, as does the dogs of the other workers...they run and play together great, but after a short time, Buddha has to take a break. Tripoddin takes a lot to energy and is quite difficult. In order to help alleviate these difficulties, and to enhance Buddha's ability to run and play with the others, my husband (who also works with Buddha) asked if we could look into prosthetics for canines.
I work at a Brace and Limb company (for non canines) and my Boss was willing to take a look and see if we can bless Buddha that 4th leg to run with the big dogs. After some research on my part, I realized just how expensive they can be, so I would like to see if we can help offset the cost and gather enough at least to pay for the componants we need.
