Meet Olive!

Hi, my name is Olive and I am a 6 month old Terrier Mix. I only weigh around 12 lbs. I am the sweetest, most loving little girl despite what has happened to me in the past. I was living with a person who really did not want me and I was allowed to wander wherever I wished. The problem, I lived off of a busy highway and didn't understand the damage that a car could do. My sister and I were playing and chasing each other one day when we ran into the road. A car came speeding toward us and we both were hit. My sister was killed and I was severely injured. I dragged my body back to the house where we lived and found a quiet spot where I laid down and did not move. Needless to say, the man living in the house knew that I was hit but did nothing to help me. I laid there for two days unable to move and in excruciating pain but received no medical care. A good Samaritan came into the yard and was talking with the owner when I mustered enough strength to drag myself from the side of the house and dropped at her feet. She was in shock and afraid I was dead until she noticed that my tail was wagging. I was quickly taken to a vet by the good Samaritan and whisked off to a S.A.F.E. Animal Haven foster home. I am currently receiving medical attention for the broken hip, broken femur and broken toes in my right hind leg (check out my video). I recently had surgery to repair all of the broken pieces. Everyone at the vet office thnks I am very sweet and I feel the same about them. With everything I have been through and the difficult road that lies ahead, my tail never stops wagging and my kisses will fall on anyone's face who comes near. Please consider giving me a forever home but if you can't give me a forever home, please help with my medical costs which are currently more than $2000! Thank you!
