Her foster parents (the vet we use there) gave her everything they could. Sometimes, we can't fix them and this is so difficult. Here is what her foster dad, Roger, wrote. "Sarie had put up a good fight but unfortunately her broken little body didn't
have enough energy to overcome her many problems. Who knows if things would have
turned out differently if we could have gotten to her sooner or had the owner
surrender directly to the rescue. She was very thin, anemic, full of fleas,
loaded with intestinal parasites and then she got kennel cough. She faced
insurmountable odds but we did all we could to help her through.
Early this mourning at 1:30 she was looking a little better and I gave her
some medicine and rubbed her head and body for about 5 minutes - she really
liked the attention. I checked on her again at 2:00 to make sure her IV was
still running and she lifted her head and looked up at me. I gave her a little
more loving before heading off to bed. Lucinda went down at 6:30 to start the
day with additional meds, etc..and she met her at the cage door and walked out.
Unfortunately, she crashed at 8:18 and passed away. Lucinda was holding her as
her took her last breaths. We are very upset and saddened by her passing as we
wanted so much for her to rally through this. Rest in peace sweet Sarie. We
loved you,"
Run free now, precious girl. Pray for her brother, Sampson, who is also being treated, as he goes with the loss of his best friend.
