Heart to Heart Animal Rescue hasn't added a story.
Sweet little Iryss Raine started her life at the Carteret County
Humane Society at just 3 or 4 months of age. She was adopted, and
then returned a year later in November of 2016 after possibly having
been attacked by a bull (?!). Her medical history, during the brief
year that she had a home, is somewhat sketchy.
On January 16, 2017, a shelter volunteer
noticed that Iryss seemed to have lost weight over the weekend
and was having trouble using her hind legs; she was immediately
brought
to Dr. Henry at Carteret Animal Hospital. By that point Iryss
Raine was
in a great deal of pain from an unexplained source, and she was
thrashing and crying out whenever she tried to walk.
No one knows for sure the cause of little Iryss Raine's
neurological problems, but they are intense and chronic. It could
have started when she was attacked by the bull, and it could have
been
some defect that she was born with.
What we know for sure is that she is a very sweet pup that has
had no real chance in life so far. Dr. Henry could just not bear to
euthanize her without giving her a chance. So, Iryss Raine is living
at Carteret Animal Hospital, in the Heart to Heart Animal Rescue.
She is being treated for her pain and for disk disease at this time,
while they search for a diagnosis
. Dr. Henry suspects that Iryss may need spinal surgery when her
health improves. The county shelter, with its limited funding and
numerous lives that it is responsible for, cannot take on this
expense, so Dr. Henry has done so.
If you can help any at all, with any size donation, please
donate to the Iryss Raine Fund at Heart to Heart Animal Rescue.
