Patrick has been adopted!

Patrick has been adopted and is now with his new family.
Patrick is a two pound 11 week old Chihuahua who was born without front legs. Patrick came to Noah's Bark because his family could not give him the care he needs. He currently hops like a rabbit but Noah's Bark is raising money to get him a prosthetic device to make it easier and less painful for him to walk. His front legs are little stubs with little protection for the bones and there is the danger of the skin splitting open allowing the bones to protrude. It is very sad to hear his bones thumping on the floor when he hops, and it quickly becomes too painful for him to continue. He spends most of his time in a playpen with a soft surface. Patrick is a very happy little puppy but being able to keep up with the other puppies would greatly improve his quality of life.
