Dog of the Month

by Syd Sullins

Our Safari is one sweet little pup. She has really seen more than her fair share of difficulties in her 8 months on this earth. When she was only a few months old, she was abandoned at a dump. Luckily, a devoted rescuer found her and cared for her until we could take her in. At the time she was abandoned, one of her front legs was broken. Our vets attempted to let the leg heal, but it soon became obvious that additional measures needed to be taken. We made the difficult decision to amputate.

After surgery Safari went into foster care and her foster mother loved her. She was charmed by Safari’s sweet, gentle spirit and how she quickly adjusted to her new life as a tripod.

Now back at The Ranch, Safari is such an easy, lovable pup. She happily greets us each morning and plays with her kennel mates. She only weighs about 30 pounds and we feel she’ll be a medium sized dog. If you’d like to meet this beautiful dog or any of the other nearly 100 dogs at The Ranch, please contact us.
