First, we have to tell you that Dodger has been absolutely incredible. Despite everything he's endured, the pain and discomfort he's in, he continues to seek out love and affection from everyone caring for him. This boy just wants to be loved.

After thoroughly assessing his injuries and many discussions with the veterinary team, here's what comes next:

LEFT LEG: Dodger will undergo surgery to repair his broken femur. A plate will be placed to stabilize the break.

RIGHT LEG: After weighing the options, it was determined that amputation would give Dodger the best long-term outcome rather than two large surgeries. (His right hip is out of its socket, which would require either toggling or a femoral head ostectomy (FHO). His right ankle would also need to be fused.) This way he can have the best chance at a good quality of life while reducing the hard recovery he would have to endure and eliminate the risk of long-term effects from an ankle fusion.

PELVIS: Some GOOD news! Based on the nature of his pelvic fractures, they should heal on their own without surgery.

In the meantime, he's been resting comfortably on plenty of pain medication while the team gets everything ready.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has already donated to his care. His road ahead is going to be a long one, and we're going to need your help to get him through it.

PLEASE HELP US GIVE DODGER THE SECOND CHANCE HE DESERVES.
