Under a lorry, unable to move, traumatised and shocked to numbness lay Honey, just a fraile and tender 3 month puppy, her skinny frame trembling, hips and ribs showing, and her eyes wide with fear and pain. There was literally no skin left on her front left leg, it was just a raw and bleeding mass of tissue, blood and bone. She was probably ran over by the many heavy vehicles plying that area, another hit and run victim, and was just waiting for the relief of death to take over ...

She was rushed to the vet and was immediately given medication for her pain and trauma, but the diagnosis was grim. We were initially hopeful that Honey's leg could be saved, but the vet said there was too much infection and the muscles and tendons were all torn up, and amputation was the only way to save her. We decided to go with the vet's recommendation on the basis that she was young and strong and would learn to deal with the handicap.
Honey's operation went smoothly without any complications and is now recuperating at foster homes, but the psychological scars would take a long while to heal.

Throughout her ordeal and suffering, Honey wasn't aggressive inspite of her pain and was not resistant to the treatment. Either she was too weak, or she knew we were trying to help ...


It's been about a week now at the foster home, and Honey has been quietly lying on her side, unable or unwilling to stand up, or perhaps coming to terms with her handicap. We could still sense that air of hopelessness and helplessness around her and there was no spark of life in her eyes. She is still wildly terrified of people, her eyes ablaze with fear and apprehension whenever we went near, and with each gentle touch, she would flinch as though we were about to hit her, so deep seated is her trauma ...

As we embark on another journey with these young survivors, we invite you to join us in helping them fufil their full potential and to start life anew.
