To say I have fallen behind on my social media posts for Windy P Equine would be an understatement 😬, but I wanted to share the story of sweet Drake even though it has been a few weeks since he visited. Drake is a 17 year old Beagle whose mom, Abby O'Neal, and dad absolutely adore ❤️. Miss Abby contacted me about Drake because he had a huge hematoma underneath his belly that ran up into his chest and terrible swelling down into one rear leg. Poor Drake had been shot with an air rifle. Someone had held Drake down by his collar, placed the barrel of the air rifle directly on his right hip and shot him not once, but three times. When Drake’s dad found him, he wasn’t absolutely sure what had happened, only that he had a wound, it was bleeding & Drake was in excruciating pain. Abby, being a nurse, was able to close the wound & stop the bleeding. The next morning it was apparent there was more going on, so away to the vet they went. Much to everyone’s surprise, the X-Rays revealed three pellets lodged in Drake’s body. As a result, Drake developed a huge hematoma and was in alot of pain. I am happy to announce that Drake is making a full recovery and Abby tells me he is back to his sweet self after a few weeks of TLC and recovery. It is sad to know there are people in this world that could be so cruel, but it is also uplifting to know there are people in this world like Abby who love & care for their animals and go above & beyond to make sure they have the best care possible ❤️. Thank you Abby for being one of those good people in this world! We appreciate you letting Windy P Equine have a small part in Drake’s recovery!
