Rudy is a 4yr old mastiff mix who's strength and heart has inspired his name. (Rudy, the football movie) Rudy was tied outside and his leg became entangled in his chain. The damage was so severe that his leg had to be amputated. Rudy has pulled through this surgery well and is also undergoing Heartworm treatment. His vet has recommended a prosthetic leg due to his 105lb size. This next surgery will cost $6000, but will ensure a long healthy life for him. Please help Rudy continue to be an ambassador for the dangers of chained dogs.
