Description:
We now have more information on Caroline-please see "Special Needs" 
Section.
Caroline has had quite a rough young life. She was a favorite of the Animal Control
Officer who got her off the streets. Turns out he had to belly crawl under a deck to get
her, then he had to heal the bullet hole in her ear. He did a great job.
As stated in our "Special Needs" section, Caroline's crippled leg was removed
to prevent the future pain and trauma it would cause her. On a follow up vet appointment,
our vet noticed she was moving oddly, even for a three legged dog. She took an x-ray and
discovered Caroline has an old, healed, fracture in her left hip.

Due to this recent discovery the home for Caroline should have minimal stairs and
non-slip rugs over linoleum floors. She will be a moderate activity dog. She should be an
only dog or with another dog that is absolutely non-aggressive. She is fine with cats.
Our vet has advised us to feed dog food and treats that contains the glucosamine complex.


Caroline likes to go for car rides and play with her toys and chew bones. She is very
good around the house. She self limits her activity and prefers to simply "hang
out" with her people. As of August 20, Caroline is starting to recover nicely and
adjusting to her challenges.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
