Spike is such a sweet guy. He came to the Nanaimo Branch of the BC SPCA when he was attacked by another dog who broke his leg. Even in this condition Spike was as sweet as can be and not a peep or grumble came out of him.

Spike underwent expensive surgery and had a pin and a plate inserted into his leg. He has recovered quickly and is already running around. He is also hoping for a new home to call his own. Everyone who knows Spike loves him. He is just such a well natured and sweet boy. He's now at the shelter and continues to heal from his surgery.

Spike will be as good as new in no time. 

Our friends at A Channel News dropped by to meet Spike and find out how he came to need care and protection.
