Please help Jimmy if you can...thank you. Sweet little Jimmy Jack was wandering for oh so long...lost, alone and very, very cold...he had no family and no food, water or shelter from the bitter, biting wind and sub zero temperatures here in rural Ohio.   http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=7827587          

Jimmy walked and hobbled along as best he could...alone and afraid, not knowing where to turn when his guardian Angel...in the form of a little boy named Austin, saw him near his home and asked his Mommy if he could bring him in to get warm and have some food.   Austin was very concerned when he saw Jimmy's leg because he held it drawn under, raw and bleeding from walking on his elbow as it was strangely bent and his paws were frozen with large clumps of ice stuck on them in the fur of his paws.    This family took Jimmy in and warmed him up with blankets and offered him food but Jimmy was so weak and dehydrated he could not eat but drank and drank the water as he had not had a drink in who knows how long.

The family called the dog pound but they could not help as they had not the money for a vet bill and Jimmy surely needed to see the doctor for his crippled and bleeding leg and nearly frozen paws.   Austin's kind Mommy cleaned and bandaged his leg as best she could and tended to Jimmy very lovingly.

It is very likely Jimmy would not have made it through another bitter cold night outside but now, thanks to little Austin, his Guardian Angel, he is safe and warm in the care of a vet.   Preliminary examination results are that he needs to have to have his leg removed as the injury is quite old and is possibly from nerve damage. But that does not stop Jimmy one bit...he is very grateful to Austin for finding and rescuing him and to his Mommy for tending to his wounds and caring for him and gave many kisses to everyone.   Jimmy does not seem to have any other health problems and dogs with a missing limb get along just fine and Jimmy will be a loving and devoted companion for some lucky family when he is healed!

We believe Jimmy may be part Sheltie and part Spaniel.   He is small at only 26 pounds and has curly hair and is very cute!     He is only about 9-10 months old.
