We Have a new mascot coming!!!!
We here at TLPH are ecstatic to announce that we will be fostering a very special dog from Taiwan!
This boy had an unfortunate start to life, but we're bringing him to Canada to change all that.
He was found wandering the streets of Taiwan with a paralyzed back end. He was taken in by a rescue that is operated by Buddhists in Taiwan. After spending a year in shelter, he was finally taken to a veterinary hospital where a surgery was performed to remove is back legs and tail.
He is adjusting slowly but surely to his changed body. Upon his arrival in Canada, he will be fitted for a custom wheelchair to help him get around. He is currently doing a fantastic job of shuffling around on his 'stump'!
This handicap has not slowed this little guy down, nor has it dampened his spirits. We are excited to welcome this inspirational animal to our family as a foster, whom we will love until we find him his furever home here in Canada!
But wait!! There's more!!!
We need YOUR help!!!
As with all of our fosters, we're looking to give this guy a new name (notice we didn't include his current name in the post) for his new start at life.
Please please email us at thelittlepethouse@yahoo.ca and give us your suggestions for a new name for this fellow!!!
We will post plenty of photos to keep you up to date on his arrival (January 5th!!!) and his progress, as we will be doing some swimming (hydrotherapy), acupressure and massage to help his front end build strength. Keep your eyes posted here for updates on his progress!!!
