After enduring 10 long years in a shelter, a dog with a missing leg, old age, and blindness has finally found a forever home. The dog named Arlo had been living in an animal shelter in Queensland, Australia since he was just a puppy. Despite his disabilities, Arlo's resilient spirit never wavered as he patiently waited for someone to adopt him.
Arlo's journey to find a loving family was not a smooth one. His missing leg, old age, and blindness made him less likely to be chosen by potential adopters. However, Arlo's luck changed when a local charity called Friends of the Hound stepped in to help him.
Fortunately, their efforts paid off when a couple, Deb and Tim, saw his story online and instantly felt a connection with Arlo. Despite living hours away from the shelter, they were determined to provide him with a safe and loving home. After several visits and a successful meet-and-greet with their other dog, Arlo officially became a part of their family.
Now, Arlo spends his days lounging in his new backyard and enjoying new experiences with his loving family. Deb and Tim are dedicated to giving him the best life possible, despite his disabilities. Arlo's story is a reminder of the importance of compassion and never giving up hope. Despite the obstacles he faced, Arlo finally found the love and care he deserves after a decade of waiting in a shelter.
