8/18/22 – Happy 12th Anniversary to 4 Paws 1 Heart and those once orphans who are still enjoying their second chance at life because of our many donors, rescuers, and veterinary partners.
Today, I ask for your prayers and good vibes for Lady. Tomorrow she will be undergoing surgery for an obstruction which may have been in place since she was found rummaging in garbage for food. Yesterday, I received the following e mail requesting help:
“I found a sweet pit in my garbage rummaging for food about 2 months ago. She came right up to me and rolled over so I could pet her tummy. I was on my way to work at that time (I work 911 in Detroit), I opened the car door to see if she wanted to come with me and she hopped right in. My partner and I bathed her and got her food. She was slowly gaining weight and then about a week and a half ago she stopped eating then suddenly lost so much weight. I took her to vet and they did X-rays. She has a bowel obstruction.”
We worked through out yesterday to try and get her into one of our doctors and, thankfully, Dr. Zalac will be doing her surgery tomorrow. Lady has had a bowel movement so we know it isn’t a total obstruction and her rescuer has been in contact with the initial doctor who diagnosed her. Thank you for your support! – diana.
Lady and I say thank you! For all your thoughts and prayers. She is resting peacefully right now in the bed with me before her surgery tomorrow. This picture is from last night at work. She loves to inspect the ambulances to make sure they are ok! -Chelsea
