Forrest Gump is a 2-month-old Mix in Fort Lauderdale , FL, who needs $1,000 for Physical Therapy.

Forrest Gump was found alone next to a canal unable to walk due to severe swimmer's syndrome - an uncommon deformity where limbs, primarily hind limbs, are splayed to their sides. This condition primarily affects newborn puppies and keeps them from standing or walking properly.

Operation Liberation rescued the scared puppy knowing he would require much care and attention. Forrest Gump is currently going to physical therapy multiple times a week.

After just a few weeks, he is already able to move around much better. Despite this improvement, he will need to continue physical therapy for the foreseeable future to strengthen his legs.

Despite his difficulties, Forrest Gump is a happy-go-lucky puppy that loves everyone and everything. He doesn't let his condition slow him down and is enjoying making friends with his fur foster siblings.
