Even the most stoic rescuers in Donna, Texas, were taken aback on Tuesday when a dog was brought into the remote animal shelter highly riddled with ticks.
The puppy was battling to live on Texas’s streets. She had been neglected so horribly that she was on the edge of death. She strayed into the yard of a stranger, who phoned Dallas Dog – Rescue. Rehab. Reform for assistance! She was crawling with bloodsucking ticks from head to toe. There were so many ticks on her body that you couldn’t barely see her. Her ears, breast, back, and paws are all included.
The dog, named Amora, was transported to the rescue’s partner veterinarian. She has been labeled as critical, and the team will work with her to stabilize her health before flying her to Dallas. Her prognosis is uncertain.
