Sparky was neglected but is safe now!
NEEDS FOSTER!!

We rescued Sparky from a horrible situation. He escaped from his family's yard and was hit by a car. He dragged himself back home, and his family chained him to a post so he wouldn't get away again rather than take him for medical treatment. Poor Sparky was injured and suffering but they didn't seem to notice or care. He was able to drag himself around in their filthy yard, but developed cuts and scraps on his legs. Once he was brought to our attention by a neighbor, we were able to convince the family to give him to us. We took Sparky to several vets for an assessment and we were told that it was too late. Sadly, Sparky would be paralyzed for the rest of his life. Sparky is a wonderful young dog that really deserves a chance to live! We need a foster home or forever home in the Los Angeles area asap! We will cover all of Sparky's expenses. He needs an adult home where he can feel safe and be loved. We got Sparky a wheelchair, and he took to it right away! He's able to go for a walk again! Helping a Special Needs dog is extremely rewarding! Ideally, Sparky's foster should work from home or be retired. If you can't foster Sparky, please share with all your contacts. We need a place for Sparky asap! He weighs about 16 lbs, and is about 4 yrs old. We think he is a Shiba Inu, Basenji, Puggle and Chihuahua mix.
