This pretty little 5 month old lab/shepherd mix was left at a shelter because of her bad front leg, but she doesn't let it keep her down.
With big ears and a shiny black coat, Ayuma runs and plays like a regular puppy. Her physical therapists think her bad leg will continue to improve, and she will be fine.
This puppy loves other dogs and is very affectionate with people. Ayuma is already house trained and crate trained. She weighs about 25 pounds but will get bigger.
