Millie

  • Female
  • 1-2 years
  • German Shepherd Dog


We rescued Millie as a tiny puppy with very messed up hind legs and no tail (we think she was born that way). One leg needed to be amputated and, after she was old enough, she had hip surgery on the other back leg.

We have a wheelchair for Millie that is being rehabbed but it looks like it fits her and only needs a few modifications. Millie has always had trouble using her "good" back leg and we think that a wheelchair will help her strengthen it. 3 legged dogs are pretty common, believe it or not. Millie can get around, can potty normally (she is housebroken and bomb proof inside), but she just won't use that back leg the way most dogs do.

This gorgeous 2 year old girl loves people, dogs, CATS and her wheelchair, once rehabbed, will come with her. Our goal is that weekly physical therapy (which she is receiving) will eventually eliminate any need for a wheelchair. Millie is a great dog and, once she gets that wheelchair thing figured out, should be stronger than ever.

We know there's a special home out there for her- could it be with you?
