MEET NAVYA: the great adventurer, the wheelchair queen, and the star of her neighborhood back in India.

Navya was rescued in India after being found on the highway, dragging herself with cars zipping by her a hundred miles an hour. A kind gentleman got her out of harm's way, but not before her poor feet were crushed by a car. Once rescued, she was flown into Chicago, and then transported from Chicago to Texas. Now she is waiting to make her New York debut where she hopes to find her forever home!

Navya is such a trooper and has really come a long way! She uses her wheelchair like a champ, and has even gone to the beach in her wheels! And guess what? She LOVED IT!

There seems to be some potential for her to use her back legs again someday; you can see her try to use them at times while in her cart. SNARR is able to provide amazing physical therapy for her in NY (our PT foster is in Armonk) if we can find a foster or adopter for this sweet girl.

To apply to foster or adopt Navya, go to www.snarrnortheast.org/applications and fill out an application.
