Lucy is a 12-year-old Shiba Inu Mix in Port St. Joe, TX, who needs $575 for Dental X-rays and Dental Cleaning.

Lucy was picked up as a stray by the Houston shelter. Due to her age and condition, she was out on the euthanasia list. She was very shut down in the shelter environment. Forgotten Coast Animal Rescue received a foster offer for her, so she was pulled and has been gaining confidence and spunk in her foster home.

Lucy has sight and hearing issues due to age, but enjoys her foster home and yards familar environment. She runs loops in the yard and hangs out with her foster siblings. She has started to approach her foster mom for affection and treats. She’s an easy going girl who is getting a second chance at life.

Lucy is a senior that was not taken of like she should have been. She came to the rescue with infected ears, infected hot spots due to fleas, a possible dental abcess. She was found dragging a chain lead. We want Lucy to be comfortable and have the vet care she needs to give her the best golden years.

Lucy was originally evaluated and made comfortable by the team at Chestnut Animal Hospital. At that time, we were not sure how far to go with Lucy’s care. Fast forward a few weeks and Lucy is improving daily. She has a wound on her face that is not healing, so she needs dental x-rays to determine whether the root cause is a dental abcess. We will do a dental cleaning while she is under as well.

Forgotten Coast is a small all breed rescue in Houston Texas. The need is never ending, but resources are limited. We can only take on senior and medical cases with assistance from the community
