A brave stray dog named Buster captured the hearts of many after a harrowing encounter with a hit-and-run accident. Despite being paralyzed, Buster has defied the odds and is now making an incredible recovery. This resilient pup is now ready to find a loving forever home.
Buster’s journey to recovery began when he was taken in by Florida Urgent Rescue (FUR) earlier this year. The poor dog was hit by a car in the Bahamas, leaving him in critical condition. With sheer determination, Buster dragged himself across the pavement for weeks, leaving his kneecaps raw and bloody down to the bone.
Thankfully, a local rescue group came to Buster’s aid, but there were no orthopedic specialists available to help him. In a race against time, he was emergency transported to a Florida rescue where he received the best care and treatments. Although Buster was not a candidate for surgery, electro-acupuncture sessions have shown promising progress in stimulating his nerves, giving hope that he may regain the ability to walk.
In the meantime, Buster has been adapting well with the help of a wheelchair provided by Walkin’ Pets. He enjoys his newfound mobility and is getting more comfortable and confident each day. Despite his terrible injuries, Buster is now experiencing the love and attention he deserves. No longer hungry or in search of food, Buster is thriving in a caring foster home.
With each step forward in his recovery, Buster’s journey now leads him to the prospect of a forever family. Florida Urgent Rescue is seeking adopters who are willing to provide the extra care and support Buster needs. Despite his paralysis, Buster’s affectionate nature shines through, and he is more than capable of being a devoted and loving companion.
Buster is good with kids and other dogs, and he has already been neutered and is up to date on his shots. If you’re looking to make a lifelong connection with a canine friend who will love you unconditionally, look no further than Busterino. Completing an adoption application with Florida Urgent Rescue is the first step to bringing Buster into your loving home.
