Fighting For Survival From The Start
In California, a litter of puppies was discarded by a backyard breeder. When a compassionate woman received a distressing call about a three-day-old puppy, she acted swiftly. The puppies were on the brink of death, desperately needing immediate care.
Clanay Reza, an independent animal rescuer, was contacted by a neighbor about the puppies. The litter was found under their deceased mother, who had bled out. Among them, the smallest and most fragile was Lucky, no bigger than a hamster.
Despite the odds, Reza didn’t give up on Lucky. She fed him formula every twenty minutes, barely sleeping during the first crucial days. Her dedication was unwavering, even though tomorrow was never promised.
Sadly, Lucky’s siblings didn’t survive. Lucky was the sole survivor, holding on to a slim chance of life, but his rescuer’s relentless care gave him hope.
Sleepless Nights and Ongoing Struggles
After weeks of tireless effort, Lucky was out of immediate danger but still had severe health issues. As his eyes began to open, he was diagnosed with a yeast infection and corneal ulcer, leading to the removal of one eye.
“We discovered he was blind in one eye, with a puncture and corneal ulcer causing pain, requiring the eye’s removal at four months,” Clanay shared.
By ten weeks, Lucky was diagnosed with albinism, a condition due to a recessive gene from inbreeding. His early life was fraught with challenges, yet he never lost his will to live.
His first year was an uphill battle, marked by loss and health issues, but his fighting spirit never wavered, making his bond with Clanay even stronger.
