I see so many people who try all the home remedies and it always concerns me. This new YHR pup might serve as a warning for people who try such things...at least I would hope so.
In all my days I have never seen anything like this. I have seen horrible things...this one just adds to my list or horrors.
The pain this poor pup must have endured for I don't know how long is just so upsetting. She is estimated to be two years old....how ears could look like this in just two years is very scary. Clearly not cared for....no way a person who was caring for a pup would let them get like this. To top it off, she is the sweetest pup ever. I just took her for the day and she was an angel. I took her to the vet and then groomed her. She has been hanging out with my pups and is just a little doll! She does shake her head a lot and scratch, but to see her you would never know what is going on.
Josie was dumped at a shelter and another rescue person (independent) pulled her. She took her to my vet where she found out the expense of helping Josie and she could not afford it. My vet referred her to us. She even had a friend who offered to foster her....so she submitted an application and was approved to foster for YHR. Perfect!
Due to the fact that the one surgeon who performs the TECA (total ear canal ablation and ventral bulla ostomy) surgery that she needs and because she was in heat and left with a pit bull
, she will be spayed on Friday, Oct 17. She will then be going next week to see the surgeon.
Pics of this precious baby.....I warn you that the ears look horrific.
