Rescuer: Lindy Bezdek at rescue1@northtxwelshcorgis.org
Corky was found wandering on a ranch in
east Texas. The folks that found her said she was
injured - half of one of her ears was missing and she
had some gouge wounds on her legs. The assumption
was that she had been mauled by an animal. They took
her to their vet and had her evaluated - she was
heartworm positive and the vet treated her injuries. He
didn't do xrays. She came into rescue and we began
heartworm treatment. In her foster home, she
displayed extreme discomfort when being picked up.
She also appeared to have some bladder control
issues. Upon further evaluation by our rescue vet, it
was determined that she has most probably been hit by
a car since her pelvis is broken and she has severe hip
dysplasia. The accident may have also damaged her
bladder muscles.
She is currently undergoing
heartworm treatment and she has been spayed and is
up to date on her vaccinations. We were able to pay for
that part of her care. We need funding to get her
broken pelvis and hips evaluated by an orthopedic
surgeon.
Poor Corky! So many difficulties! Wounds, heartworm, and internal
injuries!
Thanks to the kindness of CorgiAid supporters, Corky will be
evaluated to see what can be done to help her be comfortable.
