Inspiring Valley dog 'Marvel' still in need of forever home
Marvel the pup, who is inspiring the Valley with her will to live despite having both her back legs amputated, is still looking for a forever home.

MERCED, Calif. (KFSN) -- A dog from the North Valley continues to overcome obstacles. Marvel, a pup found abandoned with broken back legs, has received her mobility cart and is off to the races!

A Livingston police animal control officer found Marvel on a property in February. It appeared a car had hit her weeks or months earlier.

Officer Hill could see the pup's spirit and will to live, so she contacted New Beginnings for Merced County Animals.

The group began raising money to pay for Marvel's amputation surgery and her new cart.

The non-profit's president said they still need nearly $2,000 to cover the outstanding costs.

They are also looking for a new foster family, or better yet, a forever home for Marvel.
