I'm not quite ready to go to my new home.

This exceptionally squishable and sweet puppy is Gumbo! He was surrendered to WCAL because he's got some extra special medical needs that we're working on. It appears that Gumbo was born with Swimmer's Syndrome, which means that his hind legs aren't strong enough to hold him up, so they splay outward, making it look like he's swimming. Gumbo is shockingly fast even though he has to drag himself! Luckily, he is already showing signs of improvement with daily physical therapy in his foster home. We are hopeful that Gumbo's muscle tone and body condition can be improved so he can lead a great life! Follow us on social media to stay tuned for updates on this ridiculously charming puppy
