Your Pet's Rescue StoryWe found Simon in October 2019 at a PetSmart adoption event – it was love at first sight.
Simon made his way to Orlando after surviving a high-kill shelter in Alabama. While we don't know why his original owner had to give him up, we believe Simon's medical condition may have something to do with it. Like many small dogs, Simon has a luxating patella. The kneecaps in his hind legs sometimes pop out or move of of their normal location. Simon takes medication for the condition, and will likely require surgery in the future. His disability doesn't stop him from going on walks or chasing after cats - two of his favorite activities.
We are so grateful that Simon came into our lives. We can't imagine a world without him.
