Holly recently went in for a spay and much-needed dental. Thirteen teeth were extracted and her vet also discovered a pre-existing fracture in her left jaw. When Holly came into care, she was underweight and we suspect that part of that was due to mouth pain – eating must have been so painful for her. The good news? The fracture has already started to heal on its own, and we’re hopeful it will continue to do so naturally. Radiographs are required next month to check its progress and determine if further treatment is needed.
After surgery, Holly wanted only one thing – to curl up on her foster dad’s chest and soak up his TLC. By the very next day, she was back on her feet, expertly acting as his assistant during some handyman work around the house.
Holly’s also been enjoying a soft-food diet, and she couldn’t be in better hands. Her foster mom is what most pups would call a Doggy Top Chef, making special delicious, healthy and gourmet ‘pup loaves.’ (We actually nicknamed them ‘poop loaves’ because they’re the only thing that can coax Holly outside in the cold weather!)
This beautiful girl truly loves to be loved, and her foster parents are ready and willing to shower her with all the affection she deserves. ❤️
Holly is being fostered in Saskatoon, SK and is not yet ready for adoption.
Found outside in the cold, Holly and two other pups were brought to a shelter in Saskatchewan. Thanks to our dedicated volunteers, Holly is now in a foster home surrounded by love – and lots of canine siblings!
Holly is described as a lovebug. If there’s a lap nearby, she wants to be in it. If there are hands available, she wants them to pet her. And, when the humans are not around, she’s content snuggling in a bed near the pups in her home – Tater, Gabby, Wrigley and BTRC alum Rosie.
While we’re unsure about her age right now, one thing is clear – her heart is big, and all she wants is to be loved. ❤️
She’s recently gone into heat, so she cannot be spayed right away, but we will gain more insight into her health needs at her upcoming vet appointment.
