This is Shelby. She was found as a stray with kneecaps that slid both directions. Without surgery, she would have faced paralysis within just a few years. Thanks to your support of our merch, @15outof10.org was able to cover her surgery. She has since fully healed and found a forever home ❤️‍🩹
a husky named Shelby rests on a red towel in the back seat of a car. her face white with a halo of light brown fur. her left rear leg is bandaged in bright pink, and a purple bandage is on her right front paw. her eyes, one blue and one brown, look towards the camera. Shelby the husky looks at the camera. her white and brown face are circled by a big, plastic cone. she rests on colorful blankets as a person gives her back a pet. shelby sits on a cream couch surrounded by her two humans. they hold up a sign that says "that you 15/10." shelby is smiling like it's a class photo.
