Who needs four legs, anyway?
Ziggy was living on the streets when he was picked up by our transfer partners at Forsyth Humane Society with a badly injured front leg. Without a family to provide care, he desperately needed someone to step up and help.
When Forsyth called SPCA Wake asking for help, we didn’t have to hesitate. We knew that with your support we could provide the emergency care he needed.
Upon Ziggy’s arrival, we quickly realized he was suffering from irreparable nerve damage and would need his leg removed to have a brighter future. Your gifts provided the emergency surgery he badly needed, and now Ziggy is bouncier and sillier than ever!
Because of you, he will no longer fend for his life against traffic or the brutal winter winds. Your generous gift today will provide emergency care for dogs like Ziggy who don’t have a voice or a family of their own.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for offering these pets a second chance when they need it the most.
Ziggy was picked up by animal control with a badly injured front leg. We soon learned that it was irreparably damaged and would need amputation for him to become healthy and happy. Photo courtesy of Forsyth Humane Society. 
Just out of his amputation surgery, Ziggy recovers at the veterinary hospital. 
Still feeling pretty groggy, Ziggy is comforted by his medical team as he begins to wake up after surgery. 
One day after surgey and back at SPCA Wake, Ziggy gets some well-deserved R&R. 
Quickly adapting to being a tripod, Ziggy has already found his footing! He had no use for his injured leg, so having it removed helps him get around more easily. 
Ziggy already knew "sit" when he arrived at SPCA Wake, and proudly shows that he's still got it! As quickly as he's recovering, we're sure he'll be back up to full speed in no time. 
Ziggy is already feeling much better, and asks every visitor for a belly rub!
