CT Grayson - Saint Bernard Dog for Adoption in Stormville, New York

When a back-yard breeder threatened to shoot two older puppies he couldn't sell, rescue stepped in. But nothing prepared them for what they found: a whole family living in unfathomable filth, and a tiny, helpless 3 week old puppy left to rot. Half of Grayson's hind leg was gone. His owner's dismissive, cowardly excuse? "Maybe a rat chewed it off." No medical care. No comfort. Just a puppy left in agony to die.

Grayson was rushed to the vet, weak and septic with a very poor prognosis. Nobody thought he'd survive the night. But this little puppy had an absurdly stubborn fire inside him. Against every odd, he pulled through surgery, survived sepsis, and fought like heck to stay here.

Now at eight weeks old, Grayson is officially a PawSafe pup. He might be a fraction of the size of his 20-pound siblings-weighing in at a teeny six pounds-and he's missing a whole back leg, but don't you dare tell him that. He is spunky, deliciously sassy, and spends every day figuring out his brand-new stride.

We won't sugarcoat it: giant breeds navigating life on three legs face real physical challenges as they grow older. His future family will need to be dedicated to his mobility, joint health, and long-term care-however long his journey may be. But this boy didn't fight this hard just to come halfway. His forever humans are out there, and he is ready for them.
