Dog lovers are baffled as to why anyone would want to harm an innocent animal for no reason. Some people are cruel, with no rational explanation for their actions. Spencer’s story is about a sad dog who suffered a lot of mistreatment during his first year on this planet.
Spencer is a sweet Doberman who was discovered on the side of a South Carolina highway after being hit by a car. He was found walking alongside the road, looking for roadkill to eat.
Spencer was fortunately transported to Paws & Claws in Columbia, South Carolina, by some kind people. Spencer’s members could be seen by the vet’s staff. He had a fractured back, most likely as a result of the car accident.
Employees also noticed he had a bad ear crop job, which was clearly done at home. In addition, x-rays revealed a cluster of razor-sharp bird bones trapped in his stomach. They were about to rip his stomach open! He also had gashes on his head and legs that needed to be stitched!
Spencer had clearly been abused, and he had either managed to flee or been abandoned on the street, left to fend for himself and try to survive on his own. They discovered some exciting news with the assistance of the VCA Animal Specialty Center of South Carolina. Spencer would be fine because he was so small. He could still feel his legs, and they hoped that surgery would help heal his spine and restore his ability to walk!
Thankfully, his back surgery went well, and he was on his way to relearning how to walk. The veterinarians also discovered that the bones in his stomach were beginning to pass safely on their own. Everything appeared to be going as planned.
He is currently recovering with the assistance of caring staff members and physical therapy. He’s moving at lightening speed! He began walking with full assistance and, before they knew it, he was walking without a sling. He’s returned to his former self and can now walk on his own! “He’s a wonderful dog who is young, cheerful, and otherwise healthy. He’s eager to live a wonderful life.”
Spencer has found his forever home!
It’s no surprise that this courageous dog found the ideal family, complete with canine siblings! His parents keep an eye on his Facebook page, so be sure to follow him.
