Nana Adopted!

Nana Adopted!

Nana

Nana is a stray that was being fed by some kind people in her neighbourhood. About a week before she was reported to us, she gave birth but sadly all her puppies died. After that, her abdomen started to swell, which is when they contacted us. We were worried that there could be a dead puppy stuck inside her or that she had Pyometra, an infected uterus. Both conditions are often fatal when this far advanced, so we knew time was of the essence.
It turned out that she had a septic uterus, which is why her belly was filled with fluid. She was 7 kg lighter after surgery!
Nana is already quite old - around 8 or 9 years old. Senior dogs rarely get adopted so we were prepared to let her enjoy her remaining years at the Sanctuary. Until - once again - Olga stepped up!
You may remember Olga from adopting another senior dog - Marble - from us earlier this year. The adoption was such a success that only a few months later Olga was willing to welcome another rescue to her pack!

This is the outcome we want for all our rescues. Nana was just hours away from death, and is now living the absolute best life possible. Seeing her so happy in her new home makes everything we do worthwhile!
We could never do our work without people like Olga. If you are like her and are willing to transform a dog’s life, please message us. You can read more about Nana on her profile here.

Edna

Edna

Edna was rescued from the side of the road on 14 April 2023.  It would appear that she hadn't been on the streets long, particularly as she was blind and her nails were so long, so most likely she got sick and her owners simply dumped her.  She was extremely dehydrated.

Edna RIP

Edna RIP

The staff sat with her around the clock (as they do for all new rescues), willing her to live and giving everything they can to try and help them live.  The same day Edna was rescued, poor 
Waffles passed away, and Edna started to eat. She had refused all the food we gave her until we went out and bought her chicken - she devoured it!  

Unfortunately, it was not enough, as a few days later, Edna had a seizure at 2am and had to be on oxygen in addition to the medication she was on to help her fight the lung infection and anaemic condition she was in.  We were not going to give up on her as we believed she had a chance of recovery and we wanted her to experience love, play and devoted attention at least for a short time.  She eventually passed away on 21 April 2023, but we hope she felt the love for the few short days she was with us.
