What about a three legged dog? I heard that there is a rescue some where in Europe that takes in only dogs with less than four legs. There was an article last year talking about how these unfortunate pups are less likely to be adopted in Europe than in other animal loving countries. The way of thinking being that they are "broken." That's far from the truth and for many of them that is their only issue.

I had a three legged cat and let me tell you... she was the fastest cat i've even known.

I tried looking the rescue up online, but i have no idea what it's called and had no luck.

(Edit: after i had no luck trying to find that particular one then i searched the following.) I typed "Wiltshire dog rescue" into GoodSearch and came up with a lot of rescues. You could try contacting a few and let them know the situation. I'm sure they could help your family find the right dog.
