"There were cars stopped outside the house and she had been hit kind of all over. I don't know exactly how it happened, whoever hit her didn't stop," April said. "To see my vibrant dog who was always up to mischief and running around and so full of energy in that state was absolutely horrific."
The prognosis was grim. Piggy had numerous injuries, including her spine, which was nearly severed.
"It wasn't until I picked her up that I really understood that she was paralyzed," April said. "No one came out and said, ‘You should put her down,' but that was the implied recommendation."
That recommendation was ignored - and for the sake of inspiration, I invite you to view the rest of her story here.
What a great and inspiring story. We dogs do like to have a purpose in life and she sure has that even if she doesn't have the use of her back legs right now. It's also great that she's got a Mom that didn't give up on her.

ReplyDeletePoor girl! Feel so sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm crying here :D
It's so great there are people like this woman, who just refuse to accept something horrible like putting a kid (not a pet) down.
The smile at the human's kids was priceless. The great thing is that Piggy is getting treatment.
