Meet Petunia

We received an email asking for help. Petunia had been rescued and was in a foster home, but she had also been diagnosed with TVT. The treatments aren’t cheap and they needed help in order to get her the care she needed. A few emails were exchanged, Petunia became a MexPup, and then she went to see Dr. Manuel for a checkup and care. We got the phone call that we never want in these situations. The standard tests were done and Petunia tested positive for distemper. The good news is that she is an adult with a developed immune system, and the illness is still in the early stages. The bad news…well, it’s distemper and it doesn’t get much worse than that. The great news is that Petunia not only beat distemper, but also kicked Cancers butt and had her spleen removed. This girl is a survivor with a zest for life. Petunia got another blow, she has hypothyroid, which answers why she couldnt lose weight. Shes a chubby gal that now that shes on the right medication shes losing weight nicely. We dont know if this is her forever or not, what we do know is Petunia is a very lovely dog and has fought so much to live. She is sweet in nature and just wants a family to call her own. Petunia is now around 2 years old and 29kg. Petunia is a dog that is so deserving of her forever family and has thrived in foster care. She loves all people and dogs just needs help in how to greet pups. She was never walked on a leash, and now she does great on leash. Petunia loves to play with toys and a family that will play with her would be important. She is not fostered with cats. To adopt this sweet soul please visit www.mexpup.com and submit an application. Petunia is in a Victoria foster awaiting her forever family.
