Haley's Recovers From Her Surgery


Haley had surgery to close up the big wound under eye yesterday. After examining her, the vet discovered that the wound was not from another animal or something she ran into, etc. No, not at all. What he discovered was that Haley had an abscessed tooth that was so badly infected that it had "eaten" through to her face. Poor girl - she must have been in so much pain and it would have been understandable if this had made her cranky. But no - despite this, Haley is the sweetest dog.

Now her painful tooth has been removed, her wound has been stitched up (with a drain for a few days) and she is on antibiotics. She got home from the vet last night, groggy but this morning she was feeling better, eating well and in no time at all, should be feeling SO MUCH better.

We are hoping that Haley is ready to show her new beautiful face at the adoption event this Saturday, April 4th, 12-2pm at ProFeed Vienna (234 Maple Ave. E.
Vienna , VA (703) 242-7387). If you'd like to meet Haley, drop us a line!
