MELVIN needs a caretaker or foster!
Won't you consider helping him get a new start?
OMG I HAVE I HAD A ROUGH GO OF THINGS!
You see, I was hit by a car! YUP! Some good people found me and took me to this special place called Vergi, where I met some really special people!
My leg was in pretty bad shape and the specialist said it would be best for me to have it amputated. OUCH! But HEY, all is good now, actually it's even better! No more pain from that leg. My other injury is major road rash on my side. Now this is NOT fun! I have to get my bandages changed every 24 - 48 hours. I hate being still for that long! It doesn't feel great but my special doctor friend says my wound is looking real good and they should be able to close the hole very soon! Thank goodness, all this bandage stuff is really cramping my style.
I'm a cute little guy, I'm all legs, ok well, I'm all three legs! I can run FAST! I get along great with everyone I meet. Since I'm a pup, I have a lot of energy, don't let the tri-pod thing mislead you. I would love to find a family to call my own. I think it would be really cool if I could find a family with a special someone who is different like me! We could really bond and be friends for life!
Please fill out an online adoption application for me, you won't regret it! Until then, see ya around!
