MEDICAL HOLD - Not Yet Available for Adoption
Sweet Lilly has endured more heartbreak in her first year of life than any dog ever should. When she arrived from a rural shelter in Oklahoma, she looked like a typical sweet puppy— unaware of the silent nightmare she was hiding inside. We were completely unaware of her condition until she stepped off transport, unable to bear weight on her left rear leg and suffering from severe muscle wasting in her hind end.
When our vet took her initial x-rays this week, the truth was horrific. Lilly had suffered multiple severe injuries weeks before—including a complete fracture of her femur shaft and a hip joint completely torn from its socket—alongside a painful shift in her spine. We believe she was struck by a car days or weeks prior, and left to suffer in silence.
Despite the unimaginable pain she has carried, Lilly's sweet spirit refuses to fade. We have scheduled her for a critical consultation with an orthopedic specialty clinic, alongside a comprehensive CT scan of her pelvis, spine, and lower limbs to figure out how to give her back a pain-free life.
But we desperately need your help to be her miracle.
This emergency hits our rescue at an incredibly difficult time. Within days of each other, we have been struck by wave after wave of massive medical crises:
We are still fighting to pay off a staggering $10,000+ medical bill for a litter of seven tiny parvo puppies.
We are caring for their heartbroken mom, who is battling heartworm disease.
We are actively treating two additional rescue dogs for heartworm.
Each of these burdens on its own is an enormous strain, but facing them all at once threatens everything we do. We cannot let Lilly down now that she is finally safe with us. We are looking to our compassionate community to wrap their arms around this brave girl and help us fund the specialized care she so desperately needs.
