BEAUTIFUL BROKEN LHASA GIRL - EASTER LILY HARRIS
This one is soooo sad. We went to pick up a little shih tzu at the shelter last week (turned out to be a Maltese , whew!), and they asked us if we wanted this matted, broken girl. They thought she had been hit by a car and of course no one would adopt her from the shelter.
Well, we thought she was a mess when we picked her up, but it’s even worse than we thought.
She has not been hit by a car - just has a horrible very old back injury. She can barely walk but thankfully, is not in pain.
Here you can see her crooked back. And how totally wasted away her back end is. Almost no muscle at all in her back legs.
And how her back legs don’t “work right.”
Here, she’s cleaned up and resting.
She LOVES these little beds.
She also has a horrendous heart murmur - grade V - and is on meds for congestive heart failure. We don’t think she has long, but will give her a place to stay as long as she wants to stay around.
Consequently, we aren’t going to ask for a monthly sponsorship for this beauty. Just for help with vet bills as she incurs them.
To date, she has $365 in vet bills and as of today, $325 in donations. Thank you Susan Lewis, Karen Anderson, Odean Cusak, Marty Howard, Tricia Havis, Ginger Guest-Warnick, Donna Wilt, Cat Martindale, Amanda Moulton, Byron Ledger, Michelle Bynum, . If you can donate for her fund, please donate HERE via paypal or go HERE to send a check(specify Easter Lily Harris)!!!

Thanks for taking her, Teresa. It’s good to know Easter Lily will get to spend the rest of her days being cared for and loved.
