Rescue dog Wall-E needs £2,240 surgery for mobility

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Nov, 16:31 · Archive

The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home is raising £2,240 for surgery to remove a rescue dog's non-functioning leg.

The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home is launching an appeal to raise £2,240 for surgery on Wall-E, a three-year-old West Highland Terrier and Yorkshire Terrier mix. The dog was born with a deformed limb and has adapted to life on three legs, but the affected leg has begun to cause him increasing discomfort and distress.

Veterinarians have advised that surgery is the best option. The operation will remove his non-functioning leg and help prevent the ongoing problems it causes, giving Wall-E the opportunity to move forward more comfortably. Ebony, head of animal welfare at the charity, described Wall-E as 'an incredibly loving little boy' once he gets to know people, though he can be initially unsure.

The charity is encouraging donations through its website and asking the community to share Wall-E's story to help reach potential supporters.
