Dog attacked and sick... - Page 7 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Lily Rose started the hyperbaric chamber treatments today! She is walking around more and even went outside in the afternoon for a potty break!

The vet is pleased by her progress. Her vitals are stable and her blood work continues to improve!

Posting some pics they took for me today. Sorry, they are a bit blurry. The skin on her back as you can see is still an issue...we are hoping this will scab over and fall off. It is not a great area to have a wound.

I am going to try to get there tomorrow to visit with her.

Oh my God, my heart is breaking for this poor little one! It's so much easier to see her injuries since they shaved her. I was looking at her, imagining my sweet Phoebe going through that and it made me sick!

I'm so very happy to hear that she's doing better & walking around a bit. Lily Rose will be in my prayers.

Aww, such a tough time for this little girl. Glad she has so many taking care of her. Quick question... what is a hyperbaric chamber and what does it do? (I am probably the on YT person that does not know this!)

I hope your visit goes well today! So glad to hear that she was able to go for a short walk yesterday! I wish I had been in the right place at the right time so I could have seen her and told her how beautiful she is.

Our hospital has 3 hyperbaric chambers (for humans) and we have seen some very good results in treating patients with pressure ulcers, surgical wounds and diabetic wounds.

What a great thing for vetinary hospital to be able to have.
I don't know anything about vetinary medicine but we use a lot of Santyl ointment with and without hyperbaric to debride necrotic wounds and speed up healing.

She is a beautiful little girl and I hope she finds the life and love she so deserves. I am glad to see she is doing better. Thank you for the updates.

Oh, this poor little punkin'

! I just want to hold her and talk to her so badly! She is such a little fighter and I'm so glad she is getting a chance at a real life. Bless her strong little heart!

I hear ya...I feel the same way. I am trying to get there today. Waiting to see if the storms are going to cease. I don't like leaving my pups alone when there is thunder and lightening.

I do know that they are giving her lots of TLC there...that place is awesome!

Yes, she is! Typical yorkie, thank God.

They said she is now barking to be out!

katy-yorkie · 08-28-2014, 10:20 AM

So glad to hear she's improving. I was at GCVS yesterday and would loved to have seen her. She really is a fighter. Barking is a good sign!

AZME · 08-28-2014, 10:57 AM

Poor sweet girl. I've been following this on your Rescue FB page. So terrible sad. I am glad she is doing so well. Really makes you hate some humans who really seem to be the 'animals'

JstPooh · 08-28-2014, 02:52 PM

Those pictures just make me want to cry! Poor little furbaby. I am so happy they are doing everything possible. I just want to hug her and give her kisses to let her know she is safe and loved. I pray she continues to improve every day.
