A street dog had been injured on a busy road
His leg was severely swollen
We needed to be very careful lifting him
We gave him medicine for pain
The poor sweetheart was so frightened
His femur was fractured and his spine damaged
He would need 6 weeks of bed rest
Now feeling safe, what a loving boy
He offered his paw-shake to everyone
He needed to be so patient
Daily physiotherapy would help strengthen his muscles
He started to enjoy playing
But we worried he might never be able to walk
We began daily hydrotherapy
After almost a year of effort, it seemed this boy would never walk again. But for Champ, "never" only meant "a little later."
He still occasionally tumbles, so Champ's forever home will be right here with us in Animal Aid's sanctuary.
He has a new life, thanks support team
