Olive, the other reindeer, was pulled from Amarillo-Panhandle Humane Society on December 2nd. APHS found her covered in makeup and severely malnourished. Boop’s founder Sarah drove the sixteen hours to APHS and ensured Olive would not get put to sleep.

Now, Olive is a happy, healthy girl! She is a chewer and loves toys and bones. Olive has mastered stairs, jumping, and going potty outside. Boop! took Olive to our veterinary partners, who discovered a fractured tailbone, which gives her an uneven gait. After an orthopedic specialist performed x-rays on her hindlimb, we found the tail fracture was mostly healed, but her femur bone had started twisting. Olive’s knees are grinding, but this could be due to malnourishment. The orthopedic specialist suggested physical therapy could significantly improve Olive’s outcome.

We also discovered she has entropion in both eyes, meaning her bottom eyelids turn towards her cornea. This condition can lead to irritation and infection but can be remedied with a common surgery.

Olive is a resilient girl, and we are grateful to give her a second chance at life.

We love helping puppies like Olive, and now, we ask you to lend a hand. This community can directly impact Olive’s care; we cannot do it without you.

To cover the cost of ongoing Physical Therapy and Entropion surgery will amount to $5,000 and does not include future orthopedic surgery. Any additional donations will go to orthopedic surgeries out of state, as Olive’s case is particularly challenging.

We at Boop hope you will aid in our mission to provide quality care for Olive and other dogs like her.

Below is the current cost breakdown:

Physical Therapy Consultation Session: $260
Physical Therapy, Weekly for Six Months: $90-$170 per session (roughly $3,000)
Entropion Surgery (quote from animal hospital, exact amount and cost breakdown coming soon): $1,500
