Peaches, now Lily, is a petite 2-year-old red/gold Golden. Unfortunately, she was a stray and found herself at the Gila River Animal Shelter. She received her initial vaccines at the shelter and continued her vetting at one of our partner veterinarians. This little darling weighed in at a mere 37 pounds at her first vet visit. Her myriad of health issues included a wound and skin infection on her chest, a contagious upper respiratory infection, diarrhea, anemia, and teeth in poor condition. She was treated with antibiotics, medicated shampoo and a nutritious diet. When Peaches was finally ready to be placed with her FWITA, she began vomiting pieces of plastic. A trip to the ER was warranted where X-rays where done. There was definitely something in her stomach! Surgery was performed and seven more pieces of plastic were found in her abdomen and removed. After a lengthy recovery with one of AGR’s outstanding fosters she was ready for her forever home. Lily is loving her new life with her adopter and a resident fur child. She is definitely thriving in her new home, and the adopter has said she thinks she hit the jackpot with this lovely girl! Thank you AGR for saving this sweet girl.
