Stone found himself far from home! We can tell this sweet guy had an owner who loved him, but so far we have been unable to locate them despite our best efforts. He was found in December 2022, near Lake Cypress Springs in Mount Vernon, TX without a collar or microchip present. Our rescue was contacted in early January 2023 by the community member who found him. Currently in a foster home, Stone has shown that he is friendly and compatible alongside a wide variety of other animals and humans. Stone has an affectionate, calm, and even-temperament, which gives him great potential for adapting well to both the physical changes in his body and a new environment. While Stone has a very long road of medical treatment & rehabilitation ahead of him, he WILL be able to recover and go on to enjoy a normal, long, and healthy life. He is currently receiving treatment for heartworms, and we have provided all other necessary medical care he needed. Since being under our guardianship he is now also microchipped, fully vaccinated, and on parasite prevention. Unfortunately Stone was found with a significant injury to his front right leg. It was initially thought to be a wound from another animal, however x-rays confirmed it to be the result of a gunshot wound. The firearm fractured his leg so significantly that it is damaged beyond repair, and will require amputation. As a new rescue organization operating on a grassroots level with limited funds and volunteer support, Stone’s needs exceed our current resources. Since his diagnosis we have been actively exploring all pathways for assistance.
