When Pebbles was at a local shelter, she was going to be euthanized because of a mangled leg. DAWG stepped in to save her. Emergency reconstructive surgery failed, so we approved having her leg amputated. Although this seemed to be an undesirable outcome, Pebbles is so full of joy and fun that she doesn't seem to notice or miss her leg. 

 

Then Pebbles was diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, which requires medication and regular blood work, as well as paying attention to when Pebbles has to go outside. Dogs with Cushing's syndrome need to urinate often, but otherwise feel good.

 

Pebbles hasn't had the best of luck, until now. At this stage of her life, we feel what is in Pebbles' best interest is to stay in her foster home, where she is surrounded by a family that adores her and doesn't mind the "extra "work" Pebbles may require. So Pebbles is home at last!  

 

DAWG will continue to pay for Pebbles' medical needs.  When we post dogs as "virtual adoptions," it's because they may have medical problems that people are not always willing to assume. These virtual adoptions stay with their foster parents and live out their lives in homes that cherish them. In the end, what could be better than that?
