Is now a Vegas pug!
Meet Franky – he was flown to Vegas via a private plane of foster, Barry Lasko, a local dentist in Henderson, on Friday, 9/11. He was stray in a kill shelter in Elko, NV. The shelter was very cooperative and drove Franky to the airport and even brought Barry some sandwiches from the local restaurant! Barry generously paid for the fuel for his plane to fly up and spring Franky and asked that any donations we received be put towards Pug-O-Rama and medical bills.
He is skinny and our vet believe he has had some kind of trauma on his left side, was attacked, abused or hit by a car, and it was left untreated, whatever it was. He can’t see out of his left eye but it is normal looking, and his lip on the left side – the top one has what looks like a bite mark in it and his lower lip hangs really low. He was taken to our vet for his shots, a neuter and a lip tuck! There is one picture of the “before” of his lip and a few of the “after”.
Our vet believes he is about 6-7 years old. His left leg also has a limp/drag/wobble to it, but he gets around alright- this is also being contributed to whatever he went thru in his past. His vision in his right eye seems to be a little compromised, but he seems to hear fine. He also has ear infections in both his ears and is being treated by ear meds. He seems to be a happy and loving pug – lavishing in any attention he gets. Is there someone who can accept this special pug as the special little guy he is? He’s just looking for a loving home to spoil him like he has never known it before.
Many thanks to everyone who emailed us about this guy, to Barry for flying him to us, and to the shelter for being so concerned about this guy.
