Gweedo

My story

**Meet Gweedo – the World’s Happiest Paraplegic Pup!** Gweedo is a 4-year-old, 60–70 lb bundle of sunshine with a heart as big as his smile. Life hasn’t always been kind to him, but you’d never know it by the way he greets each day with pure joy. This special boy has been at the ranch for a while now, patiently waiting for his forever family while playing the loving role of “Uncle Gweedo” to countless puppies who’ve come and gone. Now it’s *his* turn. Gweedo may have some mobility challenges—he’s a tripod with only his front legs fully functioning—but don’t let that fool you. He zooms around in his wheelchair like a pro and has mastered scooting around when he’s feeling extra cozy. His spirit? Absolutely unstoppable. He’s never met a stranger—just future friends. Gweedo adores people of all ages and gets along beautifully with other dogs, though he’d be perfectly happy soaking up all the love as your one and only. As long as you’ve got some treats and a hand ready for pets, you’ll have a best friend for life. Just a heads-up: he *might* accidentally run over your toes in all his excitement! We understand that adopting a dog with special needs can feel intimidating, but Gweedo has his routine down and is ready to roll right into your heart. No dog deserves a second chance more than this guy—and we promise, giving it to him will be one of the best things you ever do. Gweedo is looking for a home that sees just how EXTRA special he truly is. Are you that someone?
