Zelda is a 1-year-old Husky Mix in Moab, UT, who needs $2,000 for Stifel (knee) fracture repair.

Zelda was rescued from the Navajo reservation and brought to Underdog Rescue and Rehab. When this 8 month old, husky mix girl arrived at the Ranch, we knew she needed emergency medical attention immediately. X-rays showed that she had a broken hip and would require surgery and therapy to recover. 6 weeks post-surgery, she now enjoys life with her foster mom and furry sister and now new family!

Zelda was in a foster home for 6 weeks. She loves to play with other dogs. Any time there is a hand nearby, Zelda will find a way to receive some love-check out her video meeting her new fur-ever family! She has a morning routine of going in and out of the dog door continuously and loves parading around the house with her stuffed chicken. Zelda is gaining confidence and is such a goofy gal.

Underdog Rescue has saved over 954 dogs. We never turn a dog away because of their medical needs. We are a small rescue that relies on our supporters to help us through financially hard times. COVID, and multiple intense medical cases last month mean we need your support.

Mill Creek Animal Hospital has been treating Zelda since she came into Underdog's care. Dr. Scott performed surgery on Zelda's hip to stabilize it. Now, the new bone isn't growing correctly and Dr. Scott will need to perform another corrective surgery. Zelda has been vaccinated, dewormed, and spayed. She is ready for her adopters home, but medical costs and treatments still remain.

Zelda is a survivor. We don't know her past or how her hip was broken, but she has given us the chance to save her. She trusts us completely with her happiness and health and we cannot let her down. There are a variety of ways she could have broken her hip including at the hands of humans, but regardless, this girl has so much love to give and we will support her recovery until she is adopted.
