NorthStar Pet Rescue was contacted by the San Marcos Texas shelter, one of our rescue partners, about an urgent German Shepherd Dog they had recently taken in (whom we have named "Ruger"). Although we'll never know exactly what happened to Ruger, his injuries are consistent with being struck by a car. In severe pain and barely able to stand or walk, his condition was serious. Yet even through all the pain, his spirit shone through and touched the hearts of all the shelter workers and everyone he met. As a senior and medical needs focused rescue, NorthStar agreed to accept Ruger into the rescue and get him the urgent orthopedic surgery to his front ankle and physical rehabilitation he will need. As his surgery and rehab are likely to exceed $8000.00, we are asking for donations to help this sweet boy on the road to recovery so he can find his forever home. Ruger will be having his surgery in Texas and when he is healthy enough he will be travelling to NJ to continue his recovery.
