I never post stuff like this, but my husband sent this to me this morning and asked that I post this here at PT. It's coming from one of his colleagues at work (we're in Northern CA, so please let me know if you're interested in this fella):
I am looking for a home for a purebred, papered Golden Retriever. He is 2 years old and his name is Rocky.
Rocky was rescued on the Hwy after he jumped out of the back of a pickup and was left for dead by his owner. He had a broken leg in 5 places and the vet tried to pin it but the leg would not heal properly so last Thursday it had to be amputated.. I spent the weekend with him and he acts like nothing ever happened considering his surgery was only a few days before I saw him. He has a great spirit to live and a wonderful loving personality. He is actively running around as if nothing happened. I am told by the vet that a 3 legged dog can do anything a normal dog can do.
He will need to stay are his temporary home for about another 3 weeks to monitor the healing is going ok. He is beautiful and just needs someone to love him.
He is currently not neutered but if you want him to be, it will be done free of charge before taking him home.
If there is ANYONE you know who might be interested, please let me know. I know he will make a great for someone's family.
