The
Story of Ava
The little gal with a lot
of heart
 |
Ava was rescued by Bully
Buddies and thanks to them she knew
some love in life.

Ava was
found as a stray puppy with a broken leg. It was assumed that she had
been hit by a car. We started to worry when the muscle strength in her
back end did not improve, and she kept on hobbling.
Despite
these physical obstacles, Ava lived life with a huge grin. Her foster mom
Zoe and Zoe's children adored Ava's ever optimistic, kissy outlook on
life. She was then diagnosed with luxating patellas, twisted tibias, hip
dysplasia and an ACL tear. It was likely these poor genetics that caused
her leg to break in the first place. We were waiting to hear from
specialists in regards to surgical possibilities, when her front end gave
out- it just couldn't take the strain of doing all the work for her
back-end.
She is the picture of
what happens when people breed for money, and do not take into account the
well-being of the dogs they are breeding. Her siblings are likely to face
similar fates. Please do not support Backyard Breeders.
Rest in Peace
sweet Ava
