Simon is a big beautiful 68lb goof who loves attention and just wants to hang out by your side.
Simon was found with his brothers Alvin and Theodore on the side of a road as puppies. The 3 brothers were in a high volume shelter and put on the euthanasia list at 4-6 months old due to capacity of care, fortunately we had a foster step up for all 3. His brother Theodore has been adopted but Alvin is still available!
After being picked up by Animal Control it was discovered that Simon had been hit by a car & his back left leg was broken. Since he was a large, young dog, we wanted to try to keep the leg instead of amputating it. So, after a few vet and specialist visits, he had the surgery needed to help stabilize his leg, and moves very well.. but won't be running any marathons, or doing any cross training. He also needs to have his weight controlled so as to not exacerbate problems with his hip and a home with few stairs.
