When a New Brunswick woman headed abroad to volunteer in Vietnam, she had no idea she'd end up falling in love with a furry friend at the animal shelter she chose to work at or that months later she'd be trying to bring him home to Canada.

Sarah MacLeod of Riverview, N.B., had travelled to Da Nang to work at the shelter which caters to animals with special needs and came across Captain. He had been struck by a car and abandoned by his owner. He was rescued three months later, but had a paralyzed hind end, and had to have a leg amputated and one eye removed, along with his teeth.

“When I first met him he wasn’t the dog that was super energetic and happy, he was kind of in the corner, old, grumpy shelter dog,” she told Global News. But she brought him to her apartment and fostered him back to health.

Now, MacLeod is trying to bring him to Canada and Shelley Steeves reports on the hoops she's jumping through to give him a forever home.
