Milo, dog thrown off Hollywood roof, slowly recovering

WEST HOLLYWOOD (KABC) -- Milo, the dog that was allegedly thrown off the roof of a four-story apartment building in Hollywood, is now able to stand again with a little help.

Milo's vet said that there's a possibility he might be able to walk again someday but there's no guarantee.

Last week, the two-and-a-half year old shar-pei/beagle mix was being cared for by a petsitter through the company Rover.

According to Milo's owners, he ran away after being left with a petsitter and only heard from him moments before he plunged off of the roof.

Milo's owner says police believe the dog was thrown from the top level of a four-story apartment building next door, landing on the top of the adjacent two-story building.

The fall left him with a broken back and severely injured rear legs. Doctors at the time said he might never walk on his own again.

Although Rover is paying Milo's medical bills, owner Solomon Lee has started a GoFundMe page to cover additional costs, including rehab therapy and medication he may need for the rest of his life.
