Если не возражаете, вот немного подправленный текст письма (проверено англоязычным товарищем):
I'd like to tell you the story of a dog. He (I cannot call Tuzik "It")lives
in Russia, in one of the animal shelters in Saint Petersburg. In spite of the fact
that Saint Petersburg is quite a large and famous city, it has however serious problems with
homeless animals,animal and pet protection, lack of shelters and so on.
Tuzik lives in a shelter. Some time ago he was run over by a car.
His spine was broken and he will never be able to use his back legs again.
Some people took Tuzik from the street where he was injured to a vets clinic where they did the best they could for him and then Tuzik was put in the shelter where he lives to this day.
He now has a "wheelchair" which aids his walking.
Tuzik is 3 or 4 years old, he weights about 30-35 kgs and his height is nearly 60 cm.
Besides the problems he has Tuzik otherwise is a healthy dog, but periodically he needs kidney and urinary bladder tests.
Tuzik is a stubborn and opinionated dog with a strong character. Inspite of everything his favorite activity is walking.
He gets accustomed to good people easily.
Tuzik has a zest for life despite all the hardships.
The problem is that Tuzik does not have that special someone who can take care of him and love him as if he was the only dog in the world.
We are now looking for a permanent home for him.
Tuzik would be a great companion dog who enjoys and needs the trust and care of people.
It's extremely difficult for such a dog to find an owner, especially in
Russia.
I'm writing this letter to ask for your help. Maybe you would know someone who could offer Tuzik a good, loving home. And maybe you would have information about sites or organizations which could help us.
We hope to hear from you as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and thank you in advance for your help.
Natasha,Saint Petersburg
Написали stubborn(упрямый) вместо brutal. Ну, и раз упрямый, то и то, что делает только то, что хочет, мы опустили.

будем держать в курсе, если кто-нибудь откликнется. Больше пока, к сожалению, ничем помочь не можем(мы с мужем оба студенты, а ситуация в Ирландии сейчас, мягко сказать, не очень, как и везде)
будем еще размещать объявления по разным сайтам
