This is Sandy. She landed in a shelter with a dislocated hip and luxating patella after being hit by a car. Thanks to your support of our merch, @15outof10.org was able to cover her surgery and physical therapy. She has found a forever home and is healing beautifully ❤️‍🩹

a blond and white pup named Sandy looks up at us from inside a vet kennel. her left hind leg is shaved from surgery and bandages cover it and her right front leg. an empty tray of dog food is also in frame.

the pup Sandy sits on top of a purple towel next to a human. the human wears protective goggles and holds a medical machine to the pup's left hind leg. the human smiles and the pup looks at the camera with alert eyes.

the blond and white pup Sandy stands next to a seated person in a black shirt. both are smiling up at the camera, now family.
