The story of Glen.
14 February 2008
GLEN was rescued from a home three weeks ago resulting from a phone call we received from the owner. He was in a bad state with a badly injured leg. He was unconscious and suffering from septicaemia. He was put on a dialysis machine and his life was in the balance. The vet estimated he was hours from death. Miraculously he started to recover, though it was thought that his leg would be amputated. GLEN however is a great fighter for life and after three weeks it was decided by the vets that he was now well enough to live in a home. He could not be kept in a kennel so he has been taken into foster care by Catherine and her family who are looking after him and providing him with a stable environment. His leg is dressed every two days by the local vet who intimated that his leg could still require amputation owing to the necrotic tissue. On the credit side he is looking much happier now. He cannot be rehomed until he has completely medically and physically healed. Here is a photo of him with Catherine.
