A "cheeky and loveable" dog who has led a hard life is looking for a forever home this Valentine's Day.
Harley, who was rescued by foster mum Yvette Hart after being found on Turkish landfill site, is looking for love and care from someone who can cater to his needs.
A year on from when he was first rescued, Ms Hart has said that he will "make a fab companion" as the hunt for his new home continues.
Although he can sit well, Harley wears a drag bag to protect to him when he drags along the floor (Image: Wags on Water) Ms Hart said: "Harley is a special dog in many ways. He doesn't know he is disabled a d is incredibly determined, which I guess is why he is still alive.
"When found in the landfill his back paws were raw. He has no toes on the rear right paw as they have been ground away. He must have been in so much pain.
"He is very sweet natured and very easy to care for, I change his belly bands up to six times a day and he will come up to me when he needs changing and stand perfectly still during changes and clean ups."
The 3 year old border collie loves walking in his wheelchair, and must wear boots as he has no toes on hind legs (Image: Wags on Water) Although he may require more specialist care than some dogs, Ms Hart says that he can keep up with able-bodied dogs with no issues and loves affection.
"His ideal adopter is someone who is home during the day, either working from home or retired or in the enviable position of not having to work," she said.
Harley currently lives with foster mum Yvette Hart on her barge where she fosters dogs (Image: Wags on Water) "I can and do leave him up to four hour at a time with no issues. When I go out he sleeps on the sofa. He has no bad habits.
"He loves his wheelchair and can keep up with able bodied dogs with no issues. He loves everyone, even cats and he will make someone a fab companion as he loves cuddles and playing.
"Harley doesn't know he is different, he is just a special dog. I just want someone to love him, as he has a huge heart."
