Meet Rainey
This is Rainey! She is the sweetest and most independent little girl. One of her vertebrae isn't aligned with the rest so she can't walk "normal". I know what you're thinkingawe poor baby, NOPE! She gets around and keeps up with her foster brothers and sisters just fine. She drags herself around and she is FAST! She can even drag herself up and down a few stairs, did we mention she is independent?

We have consulted with a specialist and there is no surgery to be had and no long-term effects, so she should live a normal life. She does wear a diaper as she doesn't have full control due to her spine.

She loves other dogs, loves people and enjoys long naps and cuddling. She will be adopted with her wheelchair, though she would rather drag herself then wheel herself! She is a funny girl!

Her and those ears of hers, are looking for someone to love her for who she is and her incredible personality. She would do fine in a home with any size dog, kids and would be a great addition to any home and family!

Apply to meet her at pipsrescue.org/adopt or if you have questions about her, please email Nicole.k@pipsrescue.org
