Sweet Petunia is doing wonderfully.   All of her infections are gone, and her bloodwork is great.   Her skin is now very dry and is in the healing stage.    We do not believe our dear girl will get all of her hair back because of the deep infected areas on her face.    She is growing hair back everywhere but her face that was burned the worst.   She has lots of scars on her face from the injuries she had.   Her sweet disposition and charming personality win every heart that meets her.    With a personality like that, who needs hair.   Petunia is still the cutest pup we have.   We are hopeful in the next two weeks she will be ready for her new home.   Her skin will continue to heal and grow hair for the next six months.   After that, we will be able to see just how beautiful she truly is.

Because all we do are major abuse cases, we have to keep our animals for a very long time in the hospitals.   We do everything possible to keep them from getting tired of their environment.     Those that can go outside and play are given lots of time outside playing and being a regular dog or puppy.   Those that are still too sick to get out and play are given lots and lots of cuddle time and are showered with unconditional love.   We make sure each animal is given the special care they need to heal physically and mentally.   It is caused for celebration whenever one of our special pups walks out of the hospital.    Never forget to celebrate the Journey they have had to take to get to that day.    They each have gone from a Life of tragedy and torment to fighting for their Life.    What each animal has had to endure in pain and suffering just to live one more day is something most humans would not endure for one minute.    Celebrate their Journeys and their strength to never give up HOPE.   They are each more than survivors; they have WON and deserve unconditional love and support for the rest of their Lives.   Thanks for caring and being part of their Journey to Survive and Thrive.
