Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). UPDATE from Foster mom: Meet Hip! One of my current foster puppies from Friends of Campbell County Animal Control. Hip! He appears to be a 4 month old XL bully puppy. Terrified of life but steadily coming out of his shell. He came with a pretty concerning limp so I didn't want to post about him until we knew what was going on. Turns out this 37 lb chonk (no he's not overweight!) has Panosteitis, long bone pain which can be a common problem in large breed pups. The good news is that he should grow out of it with proper nutrition, continued rest and pain meds. It can have flare ups but I'll know what the cause is now. He is one of three from the same litter. Unfortunately they ended up at the shelter when the 'breeder' couldn't find homes for them. This is why we don't support backyard breeding y'all! When their family was not able to find homes, three babies were signed over to the animal control facility this week. We are happy they were able to go into a foster home immediately.
