This GORGEOUS girl is Blue. Don't let the white on her face fool you.. That is just part of her coloring ;) She was left to fend for herself when her owners decided to up and leave her.. (Shame on them!) :( She has been given the proper care that she needs and she is ready for that FUREVER home! She does great w/kids, cats, and dogs. She is VERY SWEET and BIG SNUGGLE BEAR ;)

Update: Lumbosacral disease is a term used to describe compression of the nerve roots and spinal cord as they pass through the lumbosacral portion of the lower spine, which is the lower back near the hips. There are a variety of causes of lumbosacral disease. It can be congenital (present at birth) or acquired (developed after birth); thus, dogs may show clinical signs at any age. Lumbosacral disease is most common in large breed dogs, particularly German Shepherds, and males and females are equally affected. 
The disease is characterized by marked back pain, which can become excruciating and severely debilitating, and hind leg weakness. Because the nerves that supply the bladder, rectum and anus pass through this region, urinary and fecal incontinence can result. Excessive weight gain may predispose dogs to increased stress upon their lower spine.  Do not allow your dog to become overweight.  Treatment depends on severity, includes anti-inflammatory, pain medication and possibly surgery.
