When you bring a sweet animal companion into your home, you are making a promise to care for them, love them, and keep them safe from harm. Unfortunately, too many heartless people forget that as soon as any minor inconvenience arrises. Instead of finding a compassionate solution, they simply toss the poor things aside.
This sad girl was the victim of that cruelty, abandoned in a field to starve and die alone.

Of course, Xena will still require further treatment to get her all the way back on her feet. And those procedures don’t come cheap.
