Learn more about the Basset Hound.
Sharon is an adorable, lively female basset puppy who was surrrendered to GGBR because the owner was not able to afford her veterinary care. She is said to be three months old but she may be younger than that. Sharon is not able to walk because she does not have control of her back legs. She is able to use her front legs to pull herself along, sometime at a surprisingly high rate of speed. She is a happy puppy, unfazed by her disability. Sharon has been evaluated by a veterinarian who is concerned that Sharon has paralysis of her back legs due to Swimmer Syndrome. Futher evaluation by a neurologist will be scheduled to pursue a definitive diagnosis and a physical therapy program. We are maintaining hope that now with Sharon being in the care of GGBR she will be able to make progress toward walking. She will receive the benefits of consistent medical care and physical therapy, as well as being in a loving home.
