Description:
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Oh my goodness, Luke, you handsome fella you!
Luke was urgent st SBC due to limping and a broken jaw. Thanks to @redfosa partnering with us, and @hopeforpawsrescue sponsoring his medical, we were able to get him out of there and into surgery right away!
Lukes ortho specialist determined the limping was from an older soft tissue or nerve injury in his shoulder, and he will be getting physical therapy to build back muscle.
He had a Mandibulectomy (removal of part of the jaw bone) and had a separated symphysis wired back together.
As you can see, he is healing beautifully!
He is guesstimated to be about 3-4 years old, but he acts like a big, goofy puppy. He wants to play sooo badly, but still needs to take it easy with monitored "play" time and short walks. He is also not allowed to chew anything while his jaw heals, which is hard for a guy like Luke!
His foster fam has done an amazing job during his healing, and we cant wait until he can run around and play as much as he wants to!
Luke could go to a forever home now, as long as adopters are able to bring him back to his final ex-ray recheck in a few weeks.
He is the perfect family dog - friendly, energetic, and so happy. He looks like a Lab/Shepherd - such a beauty! He also seems like be a water dog, as evidenced by the fun he has with his water bowl.
