Suzie was an out of state shelter. No owner showed up and another rescue asked us to help.
Suzie came to us last Thursday and immediately saw the vet.
A groomer volunteered to clean her and she had to be shaved down because of how bad her condition was. But, Suzie was so good!
Suzie has a small eye -- we don't know what happened, but it doesn't need to be removed. Her other eye is fine.
Her coat will be beautiful when it grows back in.
We did a 4DX test on Suzie-- it's a test for tick diseases, and the heartworm test is part of it. Unfortunately, we found that Suzie is heartworm positive. We will begin her treatment this week.
She's being fostered in the mountain area of Virginia and it was a little chilly! So, she has a sweater on.
Welcome to rescue, Suzie!!! We're so glad you are here.
Oh it looks like Suzie has had a very hard time but she is with you all now and I know things are going to get so much better for her!
ReplyDeleteSuzie looks so sweet.
