We have many updates to share, so today we would like to address all the comments and messages inquiring about little Roxie.
First, we would like to thank you all for your outpouring of love and support for our fragile girl – we could never do any of what we do without YOU!
Roxie is continuing to receive medicated baths every other day. She is currently receiving supportive care; fluids twice a day, B12, and nutritional supplements. She has received a Convenia antibiotic injection to help heal her destroyed skin. Eye medications have helped to reduce the swelling in her eyes, one eye does have an ulcer and we are of course treating that as well.
We are offering a few small meals throughout the day but she does not have much of an appetite yet. It is our hope that once she feels better physically she will eat more.
All that said, Roxie does spend most of her time resting, has made some doggie friends that she enjoys cuddling with, and is showing us her strength, resilience and how much she wants to live this second chance at life. Together with your help, we are working hard to make it happen.
Our promise to Roxie is to provide her with a safe and loving environment for the rest of her life, for no matter how long she is with us.
