Comment on our Badgee case study
With one of the Georgia rescues we got in a litter of lab pups. One of these pups the staff started to call Little Mutant Man. This poor little guy was showing very weird signs of bowed legs.

We’d love to hear your comments. Leave them here.

I’ve been watching the story of the recovery of the Pets Alive shelter with help from Best Friends. Your recovery is a wonderful story of persistence, patience, and a deep commitment to change and improvement. Congratulations to each and every one of you.
I was equally impressed with your ability to save dogs from crowded shelters in the South. Your work in that regard is far larger than you can imagine.
But the icing on the cake was little Badgee. I can’t imagine a better place to go home than with a vet who wants to fix you. Speedy recovery, little one. And a huge thanks to the vets who took on this project.

I’ve seen this many times. It may just be nutritional (ie HOD, pano, etc). Have you switched him to a better food (Eagle Pack Holistic, Solid Gold, etc). I would bet it would be fixed in no time at all.
Good Luck with him, he sure is a cutie!

What a wonderful puppy, he is very lucky to have found you. This shelter is such a wonderful place and my husband and me have started to volunteer once a month and we are just loving it. Will be watching Badgee’s progress!

Just a beautiful story-have tears in my eyes hoping that he pulls through and his legs turn out perfect. Go Badgee!!! Just want to mention too that thrilled that Pet’s Alive is back on track-you are helping to save NY truly-just do not know why shelters can not do what you do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
