Who Says Four Is Better Than Three
Julia and Mylo
Mylo’s story is one of courage, inspiration and perseverance. Left on a doorstep by his owner, which fortunately lead him to the Animal Trustees of Austin. Missy McCollugh, Animal Trustees Executive Director, was contacted about this precious puppy, who seemed to have sustained a serious injury to his back leg. After being checked out, the doctor found that his leg had been broken in several places and more than likely had been this way for quite some time. In order to create the best life possible for Mylo, the doctor decided amputation was necessary. Mylo’s irresistible charm landed him in Missy’s home until he was seven months old. At this point, the stars were beginning to align for Mylo because in another part of town, a little lady by the name of Julia came to know Mylo thanks to the Bluedog website. Even from cyberspace Julia immediately fell in love with Mylo. Julia’s Mom, Maurie, decided that Mylo was worth meeting, so after setting up the arrangements with Missy they headed over to Animal Trustees. Missy was unsure of how Mylo would be with children but he made it very clear that he had nothing but pure love for Julia and Maurie. When Maurie asked Julia if she was sure about adopting Mylo, her response was, “yes because we have enough love for a dog with three legs and it’s one less leg to worry about getting tangled up in the leash.” Thank you for making this possible.
