Sasha

Meet Sally & Sasha

These two beautiful husky mix girls recently came into our shelter through Animal Control after being reported multiple times and, finally, safely caught. Now that they're here, their story is taking a much brighter turn. We named them Sally and Sasha, and both are estimated to be around 3-5 years old. While they likely shared some of the same experiences out on their own, their medical needs were very different. Sasha is a total sweetie pie - a gentle, darling girl who came in with far fewer medical concerns and has been soaking up all the love and attention since day one. Sally, however, needed a bit more help. She came to us with a vaginal prolapse, which is a condition where vaginal tissue protrudes outside the body. In dogs, this can happen due to hormonal changes, especially during heat cycles, and it can become very uncomfortable or even dangerous if left untreated. While Sally was undergoing surgery to spay her (which helps correct and prevent future prolapse), our veterinarian discovered something even more serious: pyometra. Pyometra is a life-threatening uterine infection that occurs in unspayed female dogs. The uterus fills with infection and toxins, and without prompt treatment, it can be fatal. Thankfully, it was caught just in time, though it was already pretty severe. This surgery saved her life. The good news? Sally is now on her road to recovery and doing wonderfully with us by her side every step of the way. Both girls will be loved, cared for, and spoiled while they're with us - getting medical care, comfort, full bellies, and plenty of affection as they heal and decompress. We are now accepting adoption applications for both Sally and Sasha! If you're looking to add a loyal, resilient, and loving companion to your family, one of these girls might be your perfect match. Thank you for supporting shelter dogs and for giving second chances a chance.
