March 1, 2024

Amber is a young mother dog whose guardians found her collapsed and unable to stand. She stayed utterly silent as we gently lifted her, and suggested no concern that her babies were in the hands of her people.

On the treatment table in our hospital her eyes were vague. Her legs couldn’t support her at all. Because there was no open wound, the only way to help her now was to keep her nourished and give her a chance to rest the spinal nerves that had apparently been bruised or damaged.

She seemed to appreciate the chance to relax, and literally raised her face for a kiss after eating her first meal with us. After weeks of healing, she grew stronger. Meet beloved Amber now!
