“ This right hind leg was very swollen. Blue was calm, feverish. It was clear she was sick “, tell Katherine McKinney has WUSA 9. The veterinarian explains that this type of problem can be treated if we start early enough, in particular with antibiotics, but this was unfortunately not the case for this puppy. The infection had already spread throughout the limb and was likely to spread to the rest of the body.
There was only one solution to save the life of Blue : amputation. As the operation was expensive, a local association launched an appeal for donations to finance it. She managed to raise the necessary funds, and the young dog was able to undergo surgery.
