remy

This very handsome youngster is Remy, a 26 pound about 4 months of age pup. He was picked up by a member of the public on 6/8 as a stray and brought to the Mesquite Shelter. I ran his pictures through my Dog Scanner and it suggested the Carolina Dog breed. You will note he chose a scarf indicating his patriotism with the upcoming 250th anniversary of America. He hopes to spend July 4 in his new home with a rescue foster. He is RESCUE ONLY due to an injury he had upon arriving the shelter. He is in perfect health, other than having a proximal radial fracture and a distal ulna fracture. He was taken to the vet for an exam and a full report can be obtained from the shelter. Vet recommended cage rest, pain management, and that an orthopedic surgeon be consulted. This is absolutely essential as he will need to have his injured leg looked at to see what needs to be done. He mostly just dangles his front right leg, but sometimes puts a bit of pressure on it. He walks on a leash. Remy is very lively, he is a jumper and climber and has lots of normal puppy energy. He is friendly and A-OK with being petted and loved on. This youngster is definitely worth the save and we are hoping someone will see his pictures, evaluation and video and step forward to tag and assist in getting his leg fixed. He is so young and has so much of life ahead of him. Won’t you please help Remy by networking or tagging at rescues@cityofmesquite.com, typing in the subject line TAG, ID 61149950.
