This is urgent, and we need your help. Our team just welcomed Petunia into our rescue family, and her condition is dire. Demodex mange and excruciating infection are tormenting this 8-year-old Beagle. Her teeth are rotting out of her mouth. There’s a long, grueling road to recovery ahead of Petunia. We’ll be holding her paw every step of the way, but we can’t afford her critical medications. This is where you come in. Petunia needs your help, and she needs it NOW!

Today, our team spent some time with Kilgore, Texas’ newest Animal Control Officer. We brought some extra traps just in case before setting out in search of dogs. Not long after, we stumbled across Petunia. At first, we thought this sweetheart was a puppy. In reality, Petunia was an 8-year-old Beagle in absolutely horrific condition. We were able to safely trap her and rush her straight to our trusted veterinarian.

As you can tell from the photos and videos, Petunia is hurting. Demodex mange has stripped her fur. Infection is festering across her red, inflamed skin. She has excruciating pressure wounds from lying in the same spots for too long. Her teeth are rotting out of her mouth. Our veterinarians confirmed that she’s underweight, weighing in at only 18 pounds. Petunia has clearly been suffering for weeks, if not months.

We wish we knew more about Petunia’s past. Given her breed, her neglected condition, her age, and her gentle temperament, we strongly suspect she once had a family. That breaks our hearts, and it’s something we see all too often in rescue work. Did Petunia’s owner abandon her before or after her health started to decline? Was this sweetheart still hoping that her family would come back for her after she dedicated her entire life to them? We may never know. We’re doing everything we can to help this precious girl heal, but the road ahead is long.

Petunia will need daily medicated baths, antibiotics, a cocktail of medications, supplements, nutritious food, and more to recover from this painful chapter in her life and experience the peaceful, comfortable retirement she was always meant to have. We’re pouring our hearts and our funds into Petunia’s healing, but this is more than we can manage alone. We were juggling countless medical cases before her arrival, but how could we turn Petunia away? We’ve committed to her better future, but we need YOUR help to cross the finish line. Are you with us?

Don’t ignore this hurting soul. Petunia needs ALL of us right now. We urge you to donate to her care fund and share her story today. Every ounce of support helps. Thank you so much for your compassion and selflessness, and we’ll be sure to post updates on Petunia’s healing whenever possible.

With hope,
Backwoods Barkers Rescue

Since Petunia’s previous owner is unknown, and there are no viable leads, an investigation cannot be opened. Right now, the best thing we can do for Petunia is help her heal. Thank you for your understanding and your support.
