CA: 4.5 years old paralyzed purebred corgi needs a home

[BuddyNeedsHelp]

Hi Everyone,

I have a 4.5 year old purebred sable Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Buddy available for adoption. On Thanksgiving morning he ruptured a spinal disk and severed his spinal cord, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down. He is unable to defecate or urinate on his own. Unfortunately a week after his accident he had another accident where he smashed his penis accidentally. He currently needs surgery to possibly amputate his penis and have a permanent catheter inserted so he can empty his bladder properly.

I am currently a graduate student at UC Davis and I do not have the necessary time or funds to properly care for him. He needs to be expressed at least four times a day (approximately every 5 hours).I do not want to put him down because he is still so full of life. He still loves to play fetch indoors. He is also able to play outdoors since I got him a wheelchair for dogs. He needs someone to interact with him because he is such an intelligent dog. He has brought so much joy to me the entire time I have raised him. I wish I could continue to care for him, but my circumstances prevents me from spending quality time with the boy.

Please give him a chance to capture your heart. He is an extremely beautiful, intelligent, and loyal dog. You will love him when you meet him. I just really need someone who has the time and a big heart, to give him a chance. He deserves it...

We are located in Davis, CA

Buddy's owner has decided to keep him and he is slowly recovering from some of his issues. I know he is a happy boy not having to leave his family.
