This female dog was found with a mass hanging from her birth canal.
On examination we found out that it was her vagina that had prolapsed, possibly due to hormonal imbalances. She was also severely hypothermic, hypoglycemic and severely anemic. The mass was already huge, causing it to be very infected and ulcerated.
In order to be able to handle the surgery she is being stabilized with warm fluids and she is put on a course of antibiotics. We hope shed will be ready soon as her mass can become life threating .
After the procedure she will need a very rigorous post op care for about two weeks.
She most likely has pyometra and cystic ovaries, which is a possible cause for her vaginal prolapse. This is unfortunately what can happen to the street dogs who are not sterilized.
Current estimate of her care is $3000, but this will depend on her recovery and other issues that might be discovered during surgery. We really hope for minimal complications.
At the moment the goal is set for $1500 to help this girl start her procedure. Thank you for taking your time to read about her and for your generous help. She will stand a chance of a good life after everything is taken care of and she is ready for adoption. Let's make it happen for her. Thank you again.
