Sabrina Basset Hound Mix Phoenix, AZ

Sabrina's Story: Neighbors watched Sabrina and worried about her. She was sitting patiently in the driveway waiting for her people to come home. But the neighbors knew that the people had moved away and left Sabrina behind and so they reached out to us. As if that wasn't bad enough, Sabrina wasn't moving properly, and when we took her to see our vet, we found out that she had multiple fractures of her pelvis!

Today Sabrina is doing very well in her foster home. She has been on a program of careful rest and monitored activities and her fractures are healing well. She still has a way to go, but would like to complete her rehab in a home of her own. Help A Dog Smile will continue to cover all necessary medical expenses at her current vet practice.

Sabrina has beautiful manners, she is house trained using a doggie door, possibly without one as well. She eats her food nicely and gets along great with the other foster dogs. She is leash trained and enjoys a quiet walk, but is terrified of traffic. It's possible that her pelvis was fractured due to being hit by a car.

Sabrina would do well in almost any home. She attaches herself quickly to her humans and is very gentle and undemanding.

She has not been around cats or small children but would probably do well. It's important for her continued healing that she not jump or play hard.

She is happy to spend her day lying at your feet or curled up in her bed

Sabrina is estimated to be 5-6 years old, and is looking forward to meeting you.
