Morrison, CO – A lost service dog in training who survived in the frigid cold Colorado mountains for two months had her leg saved by a reality TV veterinarian — after multiple other vets said it needed to be amputated.
Nova Riley – a year-and-a-half old Bernese Mountain Dog – was treated for multiple breaks in her leg by Dr. Jeffrey Young of Animal Planet’s reality show “Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet” and his wife Dr. Petra Mickova after owner Robynne Simons-Sealy took the pooch to a low-cost clinic not knowing it was where Young worked.
Nova, who survived weeks lost in the Colorado wilderness, will get to keep a wounded leg after a fundraiser helped pay for surgery.
