Saskatchewan puppy saved from near death due to infestation of ticks
LUMSDEN, Sask. — It took the tireless work of a veterinarian and a blood donation from her dog to save the life of a puppy facing a tick infestation.
Recently the Regina-area dog rescue CC RezQs brought a puppy – believed to be about 11-weeks-old – into TM’z Veterinary Clinic in Lumsden, Sask.
Caillin Rodonets, co-founder of CCRezQs, said they could tell the puppy needed medical attention right away.
“She weighed eight pounds, she should’ve been easily double what she was weighing.”
