Would you adopt a tripod?

Several years ago, my mom was looking for a new dog after her's had passed, but didn't want to deal with a puppy. We went to the nearest city to check the available dogs at the SPCA and and Animal Shelter, both large facilities. She wanted a female and at the large county shelter, we didn't even go down the aisles containing males. She couldn't quite find what she wanted, so we came back to our small local shelter. There were only 4 dogs available. One was a three year old MALE Kelpie mix with 3 legs. Something about him attracted her, so we took him out to the "get acquainted/exercise yard." He was very mellow and affectionate. She took him home and he has bee the BEST dog. Great with children and a perfect pet.

I would suggest taking her to adoption events so people could meet her. Years ago I was Christmas shopping and went to a Petsmart at the beginning of my trip. I walked in the door and there was a Dalmatian up for adoption and I just looked at him and said "aww." I couldn't stop thinking about him while I was in the store and stopped back by on my way out. It was then that I discovered he was missing a leg. This made me want to save him even more. It was evening and I had a lot more shopping to do and couldn't see leaving him in the car for that. I wasn't in the market for a dog anyway, I was just attracted to this particular dog. So, I would try to get her out in the public eye as much as possible and maybe someone will fall for her. Good luck.
