UPDATE: 6/14/14 - Kayla continues to thrive in her foster home and now has a spiffy set of pink wheels to tool around with.
She and her foster family stopped by the St. Francis yard sale fund raiser today.
Obviously she was a big fan of the succulents.

UPDATE: 6/6/14 - Kayla says goodbye to the shelter and will sleep in a wonderful foster home tonight. Once she has had a chance to settle in and her spinal condition has been assessed, she will be available to adopt through St. Francis Animal Protection Society!
This 10 year old adorable little girl is Kayla. She was surrendered to the San Jose shelter by her owner and is at risk. We are searching for an extra special foster home for her.
Kayla has a spinal injury and while she is paralyzed in her rear legs, it doesn't slow her down for one second! She can motor around and loves to play with her squeaky toy. She is very affectionate and quickly bonds with people. And, she gets along with other dogs!
It is uncertain whether she will get the use of her legs back and she may need to use a doggy wheelchair for the rest of her life. At this time she is also incontinent and will require diapers. This may or may not be a permanent condition. Her sponsoring rescue organization will cover the cost of a medical evaluation.
