My story

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

This Boot was made for walkin'!

Nothing will slow down boot, including an injury to his right rear leg! This spunky and tenacious guy was observed being thrown from a vehicle, subsequently dislocating hit right rear femur from the hip socket. He was brought into the San Jose Animal Care Center and placed on the euthanasia list before CalPaws stepped into rescue.

We immediately brought Boot to an Orthopedic Specialist for X-rays and a plan. The specialist was delighted to announce that for now, the plan is to do nothing! Boot is not in pain and has a lot of mobility in his leg, and they want to monitor him with the plan to do an FHO surgery at a later date- potentially when he is 8 months old. This surgery will be covered by CalPaws.

Boot is a bouncy, goofy, energetic puppy who has no idea he has a special need. He is living with other foster puppies, holding his own in the pack. He loves to run, romp with adult dogs, and snuggle with his foster mom.
