Here's what the humans have to say about me:
INITIAL BIO 12/29/2013: Meet Samson. He is a 7 year old 9.5 lb little boy who was surrendered by his owner to a high kill shelter because Samson had a bladder stone blocking his urine. The shelter was able to push the stone back into his bladder. In the meantime, they placed a catheter to help ensure the stone wouldn't become reblocked. Samson is going to the vet tomorrow for emergency surgery to remove the stone and catheter. Once he is put on a prescription diet, there is a very very good chance these stones will not return and Samson will lead a normal life :)
We don't know much about Samson yet except that he likes dogs and people. He walks well on a leash. He is pretty mellow. He's an overall great dog. Samson says thanks for the love and support! His vetting is likely to exceed $600. Dogs like Samson are why UYR rescues the most difficult cases. He is a great dog who just needs a chance. Will you please help us help Samson?
