At just 4 years old, Chiquita was found wandering as a stray, neglected and injured, with a large, infected wound on her front leg consistent with being attacked. By the time she was found, the wound was already showing signs of necrosis, meaning it had been left untreated for far too long. The damage is so severe that amputation may be her only chance — but our vets want to try everything possible to save her leg first.

At Vickery Place Animal Hospital, Chiquita is receiving:

💧 Daily hydrotherapy

💡 Cold laser therapy

💊 Topical + oral antibiotics

🔬 Cultures to target the deep infection

Only time will tell if her leg can be salvaged. Once she has recovered from this battle, Chiquita will also need treatment for heartworm disease. Her road to recovery will be long, costly, and absolutely worth it.

Despite everything, Chiquita remains calm, gentle, and trusting. She deserves the chance to heal, to rest, and to finally know love. 💔➡️❤️
