Animal Depicted: Cardi B

Cardi B was rescued after being abandoned on the side of a road. She was missing most of her hair, she was covered in fleas and ticks, and we thought she had a broken pelvis because she couldn't stand up or walk. Once she got to our clinic, the staff realized she was just an older gal plagued with arthritis in her hips and knees, and she had clearly been neglected. She stayed in the clinic where she received pain medication and physical therapy. She was so sweet despite the terrible pain she was in, and we could tell she had happy puppy energy within her. After a few weeks, she was able to start using a wheelchair (made specially for her!), so she could begin to regain strength in her back legs. She loved being able to have a bit of her independence back! Everything went according to her medical plan, and she is now living happily in her forever home where she can run, walk, and play fetch with her family without any assistance.
