Toby, a 7(ish) year old lurcher, came to with an old injury, and he sadly had to have an amputation. He is now adapting to life as a tripaw in a wonderful Herefordshire and Worcestershire foster home.... and his joy for life is returning! Only having three legs is certainly not stopping Toby, as you can see in our cover photo. 

Tobes, as he is known to his friends, is now enjoying plenty of rest, often lying in strange postures on his bed, interspersed with heightened activity, playing tug and chase. Toby is melodiously vocal as soon as his lead is reached for, or when he’d like to have play, or indeed, when it’s time for his meal! He enjoys short walks, hopping along happily and enjoying the smells as he goes. That's what life is all about, and we're so glad that we've been able to provide Toby with a second chance at a happy life. 

Toby's vet bills have been over £2,000. Could you help us to meet these costs and help other dogs like Tobes? 

How you can help

£20 can pay for a canine massage, to help with aching bodies and to relax minds

£35 can pay for a hydrotherapy session, to build muscle and recover from injuries

£100 can help to pay for emergency vet treatment

Funds raised will support our kennel, vet, behaviour, transport and kit costs. Thank you so much for your support.
