Lucky
Breed: Pit Bull
Name: Lucky
Age: 1 Yr as of 8/25/09
Sex: Male
Lucky as some of you know has been on the news for several days. He was rescued
by a wonderful lady after she saw him get hit by a truck that never stopped. She
sat with him for a good hour while waiting for the Humane Society to come and
get him. After he sat for the 4 days he needed for his owner to come forward she
adopted him from there and called us to see if we had room to take poor Lucky.
He sustained several breaks to his pelvis 2 of which require surgery to repair.
He also broke a canine tooth that requires attention (the break is very close to
the nerve of the tooth). When Luck’s story hit the news many people stepped
forward and offered donations to help with his care. One lady in particular has
paid for the majority of his surgery expenses. HOW GREAT IS THAT? Lucky is far
from fixed even when his surgery is over. He will need to return back to the vet
for follow up visits and more x-rays to make sure he is healing properly. He
will also need to be seen to have the tooth repaired. Once he has the clearance
that he has healed enough he will be going to physical therapy to strengthen his
whole back end and so that he will be able to soon live a happy normal life and
be ready for adoption. We will be doing updates on this website to inform
everyone of his progress and when he will be up for adoption. Thank you to
all the great people that have donated to help in his recovery.
