Paralyzed Stray Pup Finds Forever Home

This story is just what we need to warm us up on this cold December day.

According to BuzzFeed, Canadian model Meagan Penman, was walking on the beach in Thailand and discovered a paralyzed stray dog. After contacting a number of animal rescue services in Thailand, Penman realized that no one was going to take the pup, who she named Leo. So she brought him the the local veterinarian where it was discovered that Leo had no feeling in his lower extremities and had a broken back.

Instead of leaving Leo on his own, Penman set up a Facebook page and a gofundme page to help her raise money to bring him back to Canada and pay for Leo’s wheelchair. Thanks to the Facebook page, a woman named Jamie decided to take Leo in, raise him and work on his recovery. According to Penman Jamie is awesome, and well we have to say, after looking at this photo of Leo, we can’t argue with that.

Rather, this story shows us that all you need to do is help these animals find their forever homes. Head over to BuzzFeed to read more. Also, be sure to check out the Help Save Leo Facebook page.
