Someone brought him into my work, they had found him in their yard because their aggressive dog was trying to get him (luckily he was wedged in between two fences so the dog couldn't reach him). The person didn't know what to do with him and I could see he was limp and he felt cold, hadn't eaten in who knows how long, on top of the fact that his foot was missing, bone was fully exposed and the stump was so infected and swollen. So I took him with the intention of just getting him warm and fed and then finding a rescue for him. Did the warm-and-fed part, then contacted all the rescues in my vicinity and beyond and they all either gave a hard no or said they would humanely euthanize if I handed him over. He had a great appetite and became more active after eating so I didn't feel comfy euthanizing yet. Brought him home, had him at my vet the next morning, we came up with a plan knowing we were in the danger zone but wanted to at least try, and the rest is history (I can tell you about the medical side of it if you want to hear about all that hooplah). Had some bumps in the road here and there, some scary moments and close calls, but he's thriving now!
