Turron

Dog name: Turrón (Spanish for Nougat)       Nicknames: 

History: Rescued by SOS Galgos, Barcelona. Turrón was found alone on the streets near a town in Madrid with a serious paw injury. He was extremely thin, could barely walk and was simply trying to survive. He was taken straight to the vet; initially he was so weak that he could not stand on his own and had to be carried. The paw injury was old and had become badly infected. With treatment, surgery and care he has improved enormously and can now walk and even run over for cuddles and kisses.
