A Victoria animal rescue is raising funds for a paralyzed pup found abandoned roadside.
Greater Victoria Animal Crusaders took to social media after the dog was found abandoned by the side of the road 鈥減aralyzed and helpless.鈥�
Honey was found beside the road near the picnic area at Island View Beach, a GVAC spokesperson told Black Press Media. The pup appears to be about one to three years old and was picked up by CRD Animal Control before being handed off to the animal crusaders after stabilization at WAVES (West Coast Animal Veterinary Emergency Specialty Hospital in Langford). The animal is receiving ongoing care at Elk Lake Veterinary and scheduled for further examination of her mobility possibilities Thursday (June 23).
