Animal Success Stories
Baby Girl
One of our most unforgettable characters in 2015 includes Baby Girl, a 5 year old Lab mix rescued after her drug addicted owner left her chained in the woods without food or water. She barely survived a diet on stale bread, and came to us with heart worms, skin and ear infections, a thin and mangy looking coat and the most loving personality you could ever hope to meet.! Ironically, the one thing her owner had managed to do right, getting Baby Girl spayed at a young age, almost cost her her life. Just as Baby Girl was beginning to improve dramatically, a mysterious and acute illness suddenly appeared. But immediate veterinary attention, swift diagnosis and costly ($1,437.15) emergency surgery for a rare case of stump pyometra saved the day! Apparently Baby Girl's entire abdomen and bladder had become filled with infection due to retained uterine tissue from the spay surgery years earlier, an infection that slowly crept through her body. We have since found an ideal family who wants to adopt this amazing dog who says yes to life no matter what, and are just waiting on a medical release to be sure this Baby's cure is complete. UPDATE: Baby Girl got her medical release from our vet and has been adopted into a wonderful new home where she will be loved and well cared for.
