In December 2010 this female dog was brought into Karuna’s clinic by her owner, suffering with severe burns. The neighbour had tied her up and set her on fire to punish her for entering his compound. The owner filed charges against the abuser at his local police station.
- On the road to recovery
With the care and dedication of the staff, the dog was a survivor. We called her ‘Firefox”. Her burns were treated with colloidal silver bandages, homeopathic ointment, pain killers and antibiotics. She was doing really well on the treatment. We predicted it would be a few months before she could return home.
On January 11, our dear Firefox passed away. The healing of her burns was coming along really nicely but due to her compromised immune system she was vulnerable to catching distemper and was not able to recover. She passed quickly and peacefully, wagging her tail only hours before she went unconscious. We shall miss her sweet disposition and gentle nature.
