Falkor Needs Prosthesis After Hit-and-Run
A police officer rescued Falkor, a gorgeous German Shepherd, when he was left to die in the street after a hit-and-run in the Southwest Valley of Metro Phoenix. ABC was contacted and Falkor was taken to Phoenix Veterinary Referral and Emergency. Sadly his leg could not be saved and required amputation. Falkor has been placed in a foster home and is doing great.

ABC rescues animals regardless of their medical condition. Many times an animal needs surgery or extended medical care before he or she is ready for adoption. Our Critical Care Corner will keep you updated on these special needs animals.
