We are a small ranch located in the Blue Mountains of Northeast Oregon. Three years ago, we lost our three legged dog Winnie. She was adopted from a shelter in Alameda, CA when she was about 6 months old. She was found as a stray in Alameda and eventually trapped by the local mortuary staff and named Greer, after Greer Mortuary. She started with four legs, but at 2 years old began limping and biting at her leg. Tests revealed cancer. She lost the leg after six months of surgery followed by radiation to try to save it. She was so much happier as a 3 legged dog. We left Alameda in 2003 and moved to a ranch in the blue mountains, and as she ruled over all the other animals on the ranch, we adopted the name 3 Legged Dog Ranch in her honor.
There are two humans here and lots of critters. You will be meeting them over time and I hope you will enjoy reading about our crazy antics.
This summer, we began fostering dogs for a local canine rescue - Mikey's Chance - and I was given the idea to start blogging by the founder of this rescue (thanks Valerie!).
Please stay tuned for some updates.
