As you all know, when we closed rescue we made the decision to continue to keep rescue pug Frankie on our "hospice" like care. This week has been extremely tough on Frankie. If you remember, Frankie came in to rescue after being badly beaten. He had 3 prominent fractures in his neck and back. After seeing our vet as well as 2 specialists, everyone agreed that 1 of the fractures was so severe and fragile he would not make it through surgery. We opted at that time for "quality of life" instead of "quantity". We placed Frankie in the best care possible for this pug.. He rallied! He has had nearly 4 thriving years with medications, laser therapies, and of course, SO MUCH LOVE! Tomorrow he will see the vet and find out if this is just a bad spell he is having and we can adjust any treatments, or is it time to have tough conversations? Please, all you prayer warriors, and pug angels on earth, please, please send Frankie and his mom Cynthia all the love you rescue warriors have inside you tomorrow. Tonight Frankie is comfortably resting on his heating pad and getting love from his pug siblings and mommy.
Thanks everyone. Pug hugs to you and your families, and of course to Frankie. ♡♡♡
