Greyhound Adoptions of FloridaEvery greyhound deserves a forever home |
UPDATE: 9/9/09: Karla has been adopted!
Karla had either broken a hock or ruptured her Achilles tendon years ago when she was on the track.
Karla used to struggle as she tried to run and play and experienced pain and discomfort as she went about her daily routine.
Over the years we have taken dogs from the track with this sort of injury and fixed each of them well.
We have found some dogs with this injury that had healed like this and again, even with years passing, we have been able to help give the dog back it's mobility.
Here is how Karla looked with her broken leg:
She came to Grey Haven in Fall 2008 and shortly thereafter had surgery to restore mobility in her leg.
Here is Karla after surgery, with her leg beginning the healing process:
The post-surgery results are a huge improvement!!!
While her leg is not perfect, Karla gained roughly an 80% correction.
Here's how she looks now after surgery:
Karla is quite the different lady since she has healed from her surgery.
She is now able to keep up with the other dogs in the yard. She has no trouble chasing squirrels to the fence. And she can dig a cool spot in the sand in a heartbeat! Karla is not fond of cats but should be able to live with smaller dogs peacefully.
Karla is strong minded, smart and loves to be near the people she cares about. The only thing she asks for (besides a good dinner!) is a fenced yard.
Since her leg will never be perfect, it will be easier for Karla to get her exercise at her own pace in a yard rather than trying to walk on cement all the time.
Karla has waited a long time for a family of her own ... and she really deserves it!

I would dearly love to see someone come and fall in love with this girl. She is so darn special to all of us here at Grey Haven. She certainly has waited a long time (and much of that in pain) for the right family to come along. I know how perfect she will be for those special folks!!
