Adoption information
About Gertie
Gertie is an enthusiastic pup who is so happy to be alive & so glad she has been given this chance at a new life as a much loved family member.
We don't know what had happened to her before being found & came to rescue.
She had serious injuries to her hip & leg, probably after being hit by a car & not treated.
After a long stretch at the vet, an operation & physiotherapy she is ready to start her new life.
Gertie never stops smiling & though her injured leg slows her down a little, she is inclined to keep up with the other dogs in all games taking place.
She makes everybody smile because of her zest for life & excitement to see what each new day will bring.
Gertie brightens the life of every one around her & every one she meets.
Medical notes
An injury to her leg & hip means she may suffer arthritis to the area later in life.
Swimming would be great exercise to help rebuild the muscles in that leg
Adoption details
The first step towards adoption is to complete our simple adoption/enquiry form so we can learn more about you and your lifestyle and see if that's a good fit for the pet you have in mind.
Completing the form does not oblige you to proceed any further if you don't wish to.
From there, we can arrange a meet and greet and if satisfactory for all parties the adoption can go ahead.
The perfect home for each individual pet is essential, and the decision about which new home the pet goes to is made by the founder of the rescue group.
