Veterinary costs appeal – Winnie
Winnie
French Bulldog, Age Unknown
Poor French Bulldog Winnie was found shortly after giving birth, still bleeding and underweight, sadly all her puppies had died. She had an ultrasound scan to ensure there were no further puppies or internal inflammation.
Luckily Winnie went straight into a foster home where she has since had BOAS surgery, Laryngeal paralysis surgery, screw tail amputation and skin fold resection due to her chronic skin condition, she has also been spayed.
Winnie will require ongoing treatment for her skin.
