Snow Day!
You may be surprised to learn that it hardly ever snows in Sochi and a small amount of snow is enough to bring the city to a standstill. So when adopted Sochi dogs see snow they get very excited! Take a look at these once homeless or abandoned dogs enjoying a snow day with their new families. Whether they are running, rolling around, strutting about in their new boots, or playing with their friends — snow brings endless opportunities to have fun!
Help Carry
When you’re just a tiny 4-month old puppy the world can be a scary place. Imagine being all alone, large loud cars passing by, no-one to help and then all of sudden a loud bang and you’re thrown into the middle of the highway. You recover but large cuts on your arms and legs make it painful to move. That’s what happened to Carry. We don’t know her complete story, we found her scared and in pain with several large cuts around her legs which we can only presume happened as a result of a car accident.
We rushed Carry to the vet for x-rays and blood work. Thankfully she doesn’t have any broken bones, however the cuts are inflamed and will take time to heal. To help Carry recover we’ve ordered medication and special high quality food to ensure she is getting the proper nutrition. Carry has a long road before she is fully recovered, please donate to help us care for her.
Kohanna’s Story
At the beginning of September, we got a call asking for help for this sweet girl, who had been beaten and was dragged to the river to be drowned. Our team arrived just in time to save her and filed a report against her abuser. When we found Kohanna her neck was badly damaged so she couldn’t hold up her head. We made a homemade brace for her neck and jumped into action to get an appointment with the best surgeon in Sochi. We we’re told the surgery only has a 75% success rate but this would be the only way to save Kohanna’s life. It would be a few days before the surgery and we did everything we could to keep Kohanna comfortable.
Before the surgery we ordered medication and a neck brace for her which the hospital didn’t stock. The big day arrived and we waited in anticipation to get news from the surgeon and his team.
After several hours the we got news that the surgery was a success! Kohanna was a phenomenal patient and the entire team fell in love with her. Of course', this wouldn’t be the last they saw of Kohanna. Over the next four months Kohanna had number of vet visits and x-rays taken. She has recovered beautifully.
At the end of November vet said she is all healed after her surgery and she’ll be able to get her neck brace off next month!
This week Kohanna said good bye to the team who saved her life. She had her last check up and x-ray. She’s been given a clean bill of health and she is ready to find her forever family! Thank you to everyone who supported Kohanna on this journey by donating to help us cover her vet bills, send well wishes, and a special thank you to Yvonne T. for sending Kohanna a bandana to make her extra stylish!
Kohanna is beautiful, super friendly 2 years old Husky This special girl loves affection, can walk perfectly on a leash, loves car rides and she is house trained. Put in your application, Kohanna is ready for her new life!
