Dog Found Paralyzed On Philly Train Tracks Gets Forever Home

PHILADELPHIA — Back in November 2022, a dog named Lucky made headlines after he was found paralyzed on train tracks in Philadelphia.

Now, the Lucky the lucky has found his forever home.

According to Philly Rescue Angels Inc., Lucky has been adopted.

"From being left to die on the train tracks of Philadelphia, to adopted, thriving, & knowing nothing but love for the rest of his life," the group said on social media. "He has brothers & sisters that he is so happy with, & truly found the best home!"

Lucky was found on Tuesday, Nov. 29, 2022 on train tracks in the city's Lawndale section.

He was left on the tracks for two days, according to Philly Rescue Angels.

The group said it's unclear if Lucky was unable to use his legs when he was left on the tracks or if he was hit by a train.

According to the group, a collar and leash were found next to him on the tracks, with the collar unclipped.

"We will be covering Lucky financially for the rest of his life in his adoptive home, as his expenses are extremely high compared to the average dog," the group said "He needs monthly medical care, monthly prescriptions filled, along with many items in the home. Since so many people have asked to send Lucky something in the past few months, we created a wishlist, which will help his adopter out immensely!"
