My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tink was living alone on the streets until he was picked up by Animal Control and taken to a high kill shelter. His chances of getting out alive were slim due to an old injury. Tink has a lame back leg. He has been evaluated by a couple different vets, both agree its an old injury that does not cause pain. The problem is he doesn't use the leg. Tink is so skinny all of his bones stick out. You can clearly see the hip bone is not where it is supposed to be. He will be evaluated by our vet her in Philly in a few weeks as he is not able to have anesthesia for two more weeks. Tink can be a little funny with other dogs coming near his food. While in his temporary foster home he tried to push a bigger dog away from food. It did not turn out well for him, he suffered a severe head injury. He has made a complete recovery and is almost ready for his forever home. Once he is cleared for anesthesia he will be neutered and we will determine what should be done for his leg. If you are interested in Tink, please email us so we can send an application.
