Ten-week old Black Lab mix needs a home, will it be yours?

Paige is a 10-week old Black Lab mix puppy. When she was 4 weeks old, she was hit by a car. Paige’s leg calcified. However, when the bone grew it pushed upon her hip. She has been examined by Garden State Vet Specialist, Tom Scavelli. He believes that in two months and once she grows a bit, she might need dysphasia surgery.

If Surgery is necessary, Home for Good Dog Rescue will pay for the surgery as they have undertaken a fund raiser for this.

Paige gets along great with all dogs, cats and kids. She is loving, affectionate, and a perfect puppy. Although the top portion of her leg protrudes a little, Paige has not missed a beat. She keeps up with the other dogs and runs very fast. Paige is up-to-date with her routine shots.

For more information on Paige or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue visit the Home for Good website, call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com. If you are considering adopting Paige or one of the other Home for Good dogs, please complete an online application at www.homeforgooddogs.org. A pre-approved application is required for all “meet and greets” and adoptions.
