At the Kentucky Humane Society, the holiday is also a time to celebrate the miraculous recovery of Maisy. The puppy had been found in a ditch with a severe case of Demodectic mange; her skin so raw and her fur nearly all gone, it was not even known if she was going to survive.
The veterinary team worked hard to help Maisy, beginning with antibiotics to fight her skin infection, bathing her with medication to soothe away some of her pain and swaddling her in soft sweaters to keep her warm. She went to a loving foster home where she was able to rest and slowly heal.
It wasn’t long before Maisy’s health improved. Her coat started to grow back, she gained weight, and her self confidence returned.
Today, Maisy is beautiful, healthy and strong and has found her forever home. Her fur is rich and soft; she plays with her toys with gusto, and begs for delicious treats like the little puppy she was meant to be.
