The Stray Rescue of St. Louis expressed its regret over the unfortunate incident that took place in the city. This was after they received an injured dog who had been shot and needed urgent medical attention. The rescuers gave her the name Princess Rosie. Although she was lucky not to suffer a serious injury to her face, her front paws were severely affected by the gunshot.
St. Louis Stray Rescue reported on its Facebook page that each leg of the rescued animal had been shot “at least once.”
The folks at Stray Rescue of St. Louis shared that a poor dog they rescued had some pretty serious injuries. Both of his front legs were affected, one with three broken bones and the other with a small fracture. To make matters worse, they were also infected, indicating that he was in for a long recovery process.
The team at Stray Rescue of St. Louis is pleased to report that Rosie’s surgery was successful and she made a full recovery. Her broken legs were expertly casted, and within a week, she was back on her feet. However, a heartbreaking mystery remains: as an emergency, Rosie arrived at the shelter without her puppies. The team has no idea where her babies could be and, unfortunately, they were told they had already been sold. This news is devastating, but the Stray Rescue team is hopeful that the puppies are old enough to survive without their mother and are well cared for.
After a couple of weeks of receiving treatment, the Stray Rescue organization made a heartwarming statement: “Princess Rosie is one of the kindest canines you will ever meet.”
The Stray Rescue of St. Louis reported that a furry friend had to be sedated for a bandage change. However, the adorable puppy was seen dozing in the arms of her caregiver, who was still holding her beloved watermelon toy.
The Stray Rescue of St. Louis is looking for a foster parent for a sweet dog who needs to get back on his feet after being shot in both front legs. They hope to find someone who can provide a welcoming and comfortable environment to heal. To add a touch of fun, they suggest dressing the dog up as a unicorn for Halloween to attract the perfect sitter.
The Stray Rescue of St. Louis has had difficulty finding foster caregivers for its rescues. Currently, Princess Rosie is still in need of a foster family as of October 27th. To give her a break from life at the shelter, the rescue team collaborated with a local helper and took her to spend the night in the city. The rescue’s clinic caretaker, Molly, took her from the shelter and together they enjoyed a luxurious stay at the Angad Arts Hotel. Princess Rosie was delighted with her experience, and her rescue team shared some cute photos of her having a lot of fun during her stay at the hotel.
Molly recently thanked The Stray Rescue of St. Louis for giving her and Princess Rosie a wonderful time. Even though someone shot her, Princess Rosie was the nicest dog and enjoyed the hugs all night. Molly hopes the photos taken during their time together will help find Princess Rosie a loving forever home.
The Stray Rescue of St. Louis is looking for a comfortable foster home for a sweet animal who deserves a good rest, just like he enjoyed last night!
