Trike's Story

This boy is one in a million; everyone says so! Having only three legs hasn’t made a difference in Trike’s excited-to-be-with-you-or-learning-a-new-trick attitude. He walks along side on a leash like a pro and LOVES snuggling up on command. Trike is showing signs of being fully house trained, is crate trained and sleeps through the night, climbs stairs like it’s child’s play, sits for a treat, looks adoringly at whomever will give him attention and growls/barks only at big sounds or unexpected reflections (of himself). He listens to "no" and responds quickly and appropriately. He’s a true treasure and all around "good boy."<br/><br/>This dog arrived at VHS with a severe injury to his left hind leg. To treat his wounds and relieve his pain, it was necessary to amputate his left hind leg. He has recovered and healed from the surgery very well. He has skin sutures which should be removed between 9/4/26-9/8/26. Once the surgery site has completely healed, he is expected to be pain-free and no further treatment for his wounds is anticipated. Three-legged dogs have an excellent quality of life. They can be extremely active and he is expected to have a normal life-span for a dog. Keeping him at a healthy weight is especially important to avoid putting additional strain on his remaining hind leg.<br/><br/>Trike was transferred to Valley Humane on 8/20 from Stockton Animal Services. He weighs 24 pounds and is a young adult dog (estimated to be aged between 1 and 4 years old).<br/><br/>Do you have questions about this animal or are you ready to take the next step to adoption?

Pleasanton Valley Humane Society's Adoption Policy
How It Works Potential adopters can read an animal’s profile to determine if the pet would be a good fit for their home and lifestyle. Copy and paste the application URL from the animal’s profile or click to apply. Once the application is received, an adoption counselor will call to discuss the match. Be ready to answer the call from Valley Humane as soon as your application is submitted. Animals shown on our website are ready to go home. We typically schedule an adoption appointment within 24-48 hours of approving an application where you can meet the pet and complete paperwork. Once you’ve decided a pet is the right fit for your family, the adoption counselor will walk you through our adoption agreement. All pertinent medical information will be provided to you, as well as a take-home packet including information on feeding your new pet. We will also verify that the animals’ microchip is accurate and prepare them for travel. Finally, we will collect the adoption fee. Please allow approximately one hour to complete the adoption process. After taking a quick picture to share on social media (optional, of course!), you’re ready to head home and start enjoying life with your new friend
