Meet Pugsley, Wednesday & Momma Morticia 🐾🖤
At only 2 weeks old, these tiny siblings were found on the side of the road with their mama—dumped like trash. 💔 When the shelter took them in, they noticed Momma Morticia had a wound on her stomach. A veterinarian confirmed our worst fears: she not only had an exposed umbilical hernia, but also signs of a botched backyard c-section. She was in pain, and her babies were at risk. The vet immediately recommended separating them to give the pups a fighting chance.
The puppies were evaluated too, and our sweet girl Wednesday was diagnosed with a mild case of Swimmers Syndrome. With some physical therapy, we believe she’ll grow strong on her back legs and have a bright future. Her brother Pugsley is healthy, but both of them were far too fragile to stay in a shelter environment.
When the call came in, we didn’t hesitate. We knew if these babies and were going to survive, they needed out—and fast. And we couldn’t leave their mama behind, she needed us too! Now, just shy of 5 weeks old, our spooky season trio—Pugsley, Wednesday & Momma Morticia—are safe in our care, learning to heal, thrive, and be loved the way they always should have been. 🎃👻
But we need your help to keep them healthy and happy. Their little bellies (and special care needs) mean we go through supplies quickly. Please consider sending them some much-needed love through their wishlist 🍼🖤 Every donation makes a difference.
