Quincy, a handsome Golden Retriever mix puppy, came to us at 5 weeks old in pretty bad shape with his mother, two siblings, and a pregnant aunt in tow. When he entered the shelter, it was immediately clear that he had sustained an injury to his abdomen, the severity of which was not known until he was rushed to our vet upon leaving the shelter the next day.
We stepped up to take him, knowing we would be able to rush him to our vet immediately, while other rescues might leave him for a few days while they made arrangements; those few days could have been the difference between life and death for him.
Quincy recovered remarkably well and now happily resides in Bedford with two loving kids and a canine buddy he can play endlessly with!
