Chewy, a 1 year old spayed female Collie mix, was hit by a car Tuesday morning, August 24th at 9am. Her family, clients of Almost Home's Training Wheels program, called for emergency help. When Brooke DeSantis (our resident vet tech) arrived, Chewy was unable to walk. Even more heartbreaking, Chewy would not stop crying due to the excruciating pain she suffered.

Brooke carefully transported Chewy to the Babylon Animal Hospital where her X-rays revealed the horrifying news of her condition; Chewy's back was broken!!! Her spine was completely severed and detached. Luckily, she narrowly escaped paralysis. If the break were just a few vertebrae forward, she would have been paralyzed for life and there would be no surgery available to save her. SEE CHEWY'S X-RAYS & READ MORE>
