Kane is an 11 month old American Eskimo puppy that was recently surrendered to me because his owner could no longer care for him. Kane had broken his leg in February and unfortunately when he presented to my clinic in April his leg was in such poor shape that we could not save it. In addition to having a chronically broken limb, Kane was poorly groomed, skinny, infested with fleas and intestinal parasites and had no vaccine history. My colleagues and I amputated Kane’s front left leg and he recovered well from his surgery. Kane was a bit neglected and shows it, but he is getting comprehensive medical care, is very gentle and loving, and gets along well with other dogs. Unfortunately, Kane is very nervous around new people and will display fear based aggression if pushed, but if you go slow and give him space he adjusts quickly. Kane needs an experienced owner who has the time to work on his anxiety and help him build confidents. I think he would also benefit from a quieter home.
