"She looked defeated, tired, and weary. Her eyes said, 'What could possibly be next?' Heather A., from One By One Animal Advocates, tells Waggle about the first moment she saw Marnie. "It just broke my heart. I thought, 'We are going to make you better!'"
The group saved Marnie from a kill shelter after her owner surrendered her. "He told the shelter he could not deal with her anymore. He had her since she was a puppy. He didn't even give the shelter her name, so we named her Marnie. She was in very poor condition and was absolutely miserable," Heather says.
Volunteers drove Marnie to Animal Care Clinic Inc., where she was immediately put into medical boarding and diagnosed with mange, Lyme disease, and skin and ear infections. Marnie's eyes were nearly swollen shut and crusted with green goop. She had been suffering from chronic dry eye for so long that extra blood vessels grew over her cornea, and now she is nearly blind.
Now Marnie is getting the care she needs, including antibiotics for all her infections, pain medication, treatment for her mange and eyes.
"Her terrible days are behind her. We will never give up on her," Heather says.
One By One Animal Advocates is raising money to help pay for all the medical care Marnie needs. Please consider donating on this girl's behalf. Help her finally get the ever-lasting love she deserves.
