Finn Needs your Help
On February 22, the owner contacted ATRA about Finn. The family was breaking up and in "desperate need” of surrendering Finn. It was also revealed that Finn’s hip dysplasia had worsened to the degree that the pain caused him to bark and moan in agony. He was also beginning to snap at the children when agitated. “He is a sweet boy and wants to play, but can barely walk,” the owner said in an e-mail.
X-rays revealed another serious problem for Finn: A ruptured ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) on the right side. It’s likely Finn's hip dysplasia and the excess weight caused the ACL rupture
