Original Toronto Star caption: Chica's nervous. Marcia Darling of the Toronto Humane Society comforts a nervous chihuahua found in the Regent Park area. The dog has had its left front leg amputated professionally; which leaves the society in a quandary because it can't put an animal up for adoption unless it is sound. Officials are appealing for the owners to claim the dog.
