Tawny's Road to Recovery

Donation protected
Tawny is a strong little girl.  She was very sick as a puppy (we think she might have been a puppy mill puppy).   Her diagnosis after exploratory surgery was Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and despite our best efforts, she kept losing weight.  But with a lot of love, she pulled through.  We were eventually able to get her to the weight of an average Cocker Spaniel pup.  It was a close call.   A little too close. 

When she was seven-years-old, she ingested a foreign body and needed exploratory surgery to remove it.  Surgery went beautifully, but the next morning, she went into septic shock and later that night was transferred to the emergency clinic overnight.  Most people said she wasn't going to make it and that if she had been their dog, they would have choosen to euthanize her.  However, I remember looking into her big, brown eyes and crying on the phone with her doctor.  Time.  We just needed to give her some more time to pull through this.  She was transferred back to her primary vet the next morning.  Seven days later, she was released from the hospital.  She fought off death once again.

Now Tawny is thirteen-years-old.  Her arthritis is causing her to have some difficulty walking.  We opted for laser therapy, and it has been helping her so much.  She is no longer appearing to be in pain.  She is eating again.  She is one happy little girl!  And we are continuing the fight!   

Her laser therapy packages are $180.00 for six sessions.  She currently goes twice a week.  We are going to start physical therapy on Monday, July 31st.  The consultation is $160.00.  We are raising funds to go towards these rehabilitative, life changing treatments so that she can go on to be the happy, carefree Cocker Spaniel she has always been, even in spite of all that she has been through.

Tawny is a miracle.  Our little miracle.

All donations are greatly appreciated.  There is no donation too small.  Please help us help our little girl on her road to recovery.  Thank you for taking the time to read Tawny's story.
