Vision The Stray Dog Receives Hundreds Of Adoption Applications

Michigan Animal Control received a call about a dog, who was seen roaming around with a mangled leg. A police officer took the dog to the vet for treatment but the first vet clinic refused to treat the dog and suggested euthanasia instead.

Saving Vision

The police officer didn’t want that option for the dog. He felt that the dog could still be saved. He decided to bring the dog to Mackenzie’s Animal Shelter for treatment and the staff was confident that they would be able to save the dog’s life. They believed that the dog would heal and would find his forever home.

Later on, the dog was named Vision because he was determined to live.

It was pretty obvious that Vision was in pain due to his torn back leg, but he was good at hiding it. The shelter staff assumed that Vision was caught in a trap.

A Good Patient

The shelter staff took him to Family Friends Veterinary Hospital in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to have his back leg amputated. The hospital staff said that Vision was such a good patient. He didn’t show anxiety or fear whenever they approached him for his examination. They even shared that they were able to place an IV drip on him without difficulty.
