puppy– yet, she is. She's only 7 months old, weighing ONLY 20 pounds.Ruby is a product of a puppy mill. She came from a website called Lancaster Puppies. Since Ruby left there, she has been so very sick. Rubys body is starving itself even tho she is offered food. Ruby is coughing and sneezing blood. Ruby's stool is just black liquid. She is just lethargic. Prior to today, she was in the ICU battling Pneumonia for days on end. She is not getting better.
These days are tough; since day 1 of Ruby's rescue, there have been so many 'unknowns.' It's the worst feeling, not knowing how to help. This poor girl should be running, playing, and just being a normal, mischievous boxer puppy—but physically, she just can't. And not only is she not getting to experience a "normal" life, but the sad truth of the matter is that this beautiful little baby girl keeps getting worse and worse, and nobody knows why. But even though she feels as bad as she does, Ruby will wiggle her little nub just enough for you to know she's happy you're there. She's still fighting HARD in the face of all of this, and we are not going to turn our backs on that.- Or on her.
We are fighting and moving forward, and though we weren’t in a financial place to take a mystery case like this on we DO know that this girl deserves her chance at Life.– Something that Ruby never should've been forced to fight for in the first place. The most important thing to us is Ruby's health and quality of life, and there were a few times throughout this journey when euthanasia was put on the table. Each time, we consulted with our doctors and other rescue partners and we are so glad that we did. Ruby is here today, fighting, because of their help and knowledge. This will be a long and cautious road as we keep fighting for answers, but we are going to do all we can to save this little girl.
A whole new game plan needs to be formed. Ruby needs the help of specialty doctors- along with diagnostics, bloodwork, and beyond to help answer all of the unknowns.
PLEASE help us, help this precious girl get the Life she truly deserves. Ruby's previous ER bills from battling Pneumonia had already come to $8000, and now we are having to start over. Please keep praying and sending love, and if you're able to donate any amount towards Ruby's medical care, it would be greatly appreciated. We will update everyone as soon as more is known. Thank you so much, everyone.
