11.27.09 JD - aka - Jimmy Dean - is a red male short haired boy who is about 11 pounds and best estimate for age is 7 to 8 years of age. JD is a playful, rambunctious boy and an avid hunter - because of this gregarious and outgoing personality, he decided to make friends with cattle... got kicked... caused severe damage to his front leg, causing us to have to amputate it at the shoulder. JD has learned to walk, run, play, use dog door and be himself on three legs! It's been amazing to watch his recovery as the loss of his leg doesn't seem to faze him in any way! Jimmy Dean is ready for a home, he's fully vetted, fully recovered and totally healthy! 3.25.10 Jimmy Dean is the BEST little fella! he acts as though he's lived his entire life w/out that one leg that got damaged by a calf kicking him. He has a high metabolism so I keep him on puppy food to keep the weight on the little guy. You couldn't ask for a better behaved yet independent dog!! The only handicap this boy has is how people view him. He's one of my all time favorites!! consider adopting him today, he deserves a home of his own! 9.24.10 Adopted Texas adoptions only. Please visit our website www.ddrtx.org soon and complete an adoption application.
