A New Dog Found Mom and Dad

Dad found a dog hiding in the garden this afternoon. She is very thin and frightened and has spines stuck in her nose. Mom said she had a run in with a porcupine. Mom cut the tips of the quills and tried to get them out but she screamed like Mom was killing her and wriggled a lot so Mom had to abandon it and tomorrow she will go to the vet to get them out. She is in season. Mom said I am too young to know about that. I presume she meant winter? Well we are all in winter so I don't get it. Anyway Mom says she must be spayed quickly and fattened p because she is so skinny. She has a very pretty face. She looks like a Doxie mix. Here she is.



She is very thin you can see her ribs.






Mom is asking for donations to take her to the vets and get her sorted out. She is very frightened and is going to sleep in a cage on the veranda tonight until Mom and Dad can sort out something for her.


Here she is getting some body weight back

Awe! Poor baby! Maggie is going to go in and get spayed soon too. It's hard to sit still when things hurt. But sometimes it has to hurt a lot before it gets better. :-(

Good luck, and get well soon puppers!
