About this campaign

Lotus has already survived the unthinkable — but she still needs your help to fully recover. This sweet dog was struck by a car, leaving her with significant injuries, including initial liver trauma and multiple bloody wounds. It was a frightening and uncertain moment, and without immediate medical care, her outcome could have been very different.

Thanks to quick action, Lotus was rushed to the hospital where she is now receiving the critical care she needs. And there’s good news — she is doing really well so far. Her veterinary team is encouraged by her progress, and she’s showing strength every day.

But Lotus isn’t out of the woods yet. She remains hospitalized so her doctors can:

✔️ Monitor her liver for complications

✔️ Manage pain and inflammation

✔️ Treat and clean her wounds

✔️ Provide supportive care and fluids

✔️ Ensure she continues healing safely

Hospitalization and emergency trauma care are expensive, and Lotus’s recovery depends on continued treatment and monitoring.

Every donation — no matter the size — helps give Lotus the chance to keep improving and get back to the happy, safe life she deserves.

Your support means:

❤️ Ongoing lifesaving medical care

❤️ Safe recovery under veterinary supervision

❤️ A second chance after a traumatic accident

Lotus has already shown incredible resilience. With your help, she can finish this journey and walk away from this accident with a bright future ahead. Please donate today to help Lotus keep healing.

We are so happy to share that Lotus continues to make wonderful progress in her recovery journey.

After surviving the trauma of being struck by a car and suffering serious injuries, including liver trauma and multiple painful wounds, Lotus has shown incredible resilience every single day. What began as a frightening fight for survival has slowly turned into a story of healing and hope.

Recently, Lotus was successfully spayed, an important step toward her long-term health and future. She is also continuing to receive medicated baths to help treat and heal her skin, and her caretakers are making sure she stays comfortable as her body recovers from everything she has endured.

While Lotus is doing well, she still needs ongoing veterinary care, medications, follow-up treatment, and continued monitoring to ensure she keeps moving in the right direction. Recovery from severe trauma does not happen overnight, but Lotus is proving just how strong and determined she is.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has donated, shared her story, and supported her healing journey so far. Because of your kindness, Lotus has been given the chance to recover safely and finally experience the care and compassion she deserves.

If you would like to continue helping Lotus on her road to recovery, donations are still greatly needed and appreciated. Your support helps cover her ongoing medical care, treatments, medications, and everything she needs to continue healing and thriving.
