In this video, Doug was recovering from a limb amputation. When he was just a puppy, he was hit by a car and lost his back leg. He did great on 3 legs. Then one winter night, he went missing from the acreage. We were worried because the temperatures dropped below 30 centigrade. We couldn't find him. Doug made it home 4 days later after surviving a terrible winter storm. His front paw was mangled (likely from a hunter's trap). The paw was badly injured and the bottom was completely frozen with the bones exposed. Doug was sent immediately to the hospital at the Atlantic Veterinary College in PEI, Canada for surgery. When he was on the surgery table, the vet called to advise that a lump was found. It was cancer. They removed most of it, but sadly it returned 8 months later. Doug underwent chemo therapy but the cancer spread so fast that it claimed his life. This video is dedicated to all of those who have experienced hardships and struggles in their lives. Never lose hope! Although Doug had many challenges, his tail never stopped wagging! He was such a happy dog. In loving memory of Doug. We miss you! xo
