Joan's triumphant survival and recovery!

We celebrated Joan's triumphant survival and full recovery with this beautiful portrait, courtesy of Pet'ographique.

Joan is a wiggly, enthusiastic Shih-Tzu, spayed girl, 2 years young, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.

At the time of rescue Joan had severe head wounds above her eyes, which her veterinarian believed were caused by a coyote or dog attack.  We thought she had lost both eyes because of the way her torn skin appeared at the time.

An exceptionally generous donor heroically paid for Joan's advanced medical care at a veterinary specialty clinic.  Joan has full function in both eyes and the permanent scarring looks like distinguished eyebrows.

Joan is a treasure and now she is ready to bless someone special with her unconditional love.
