Diesel

Four legs? Who needs ’em! I’m perfectly happy working with three, and as far as I’m concerned, the only thing missing from my life is a devoted family. I’m Diesel, a proud tripawd, and best of all, the pain is behind me.<br/><br/>You may notice that my photos show me with four legs. My next photoshoot will feature the new and improved three-legged Diesel! I arrived at Animatch from Mistassini with a badly injured paw that had gone untreated for many months. There was no saving it, so the good Doc had a heart-to-heart with me and said, “Diesel, it has to go.” The good news? Tripawd dogs tend to adjust much faster than humans do to losing a limb.<br/><br/>And I’m already proving him right. I was up and walking the day after surgery! I still have some healing to do, but I’m not letting that slow me down. I’m a sweet, goofy and remarkably resilient guy, and I fully intend to live a long, happy and very full life.<br/><br/>My new family may need to make a few little adjustments to help me along. Some non-slip rugs would be terrific, as would a nice, thick orthopedic bed to give my remaining joints and elbows a comfy place to land. Raised food and water bowls would also make life easier, so I don’t have to bend down quite so far. Stairs? I’ll likely be able to manage them, but for now, we’ll need to take things slowly and be cautious while I heal.<br/><br/>I’m doing wonderfully, and the good people at Animatch are taking splendid care of me. But as nice as they are, Animatch isn’t a home. I’d much rather be settling into one of my own, with people who see the dog rather than the missing leg.<br/><br/>So, don’t let my disability stop you from considering me. I have three legs, a big heart and plenty of life left to live.
