Introduction to Clint

Clint is a typical story… he was left at a kill shelter when his puppy novelty wore off. He was terrified and shaking, but when he was taken out of that place he was sweet and affectionate. He’s a Labradoodle (we think) and is still a puppy, only about 9 months old and 55 pounds. No problem…we’d rescue him and quickly find him a new home, right?

When Clint arrived at his foster home we saw that we walked funny, so we had the vet look take a good look at him and take x-rays. He had to be shaved down… how humiliating.

It turns out that Clint has the worst case of Hip Dysplasia the vet has ever seen in such a young dog. Hip Dysplasia is a genetic disease where the hip joint and the ball on the end of the hind leg do not fit together properly.

Without surgery on both of Clint’s hips, he will live a short and painful life. Costs for this surgery will be approximately $4,000 per hip. He is on PetFinder at this site: Double Dog rescue-- http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11169567
