A dog that was lost in the desert was discovered wandering around without direction, and he was found to be completely blind due to porcupine quills. Fortunately, a group of caring individuals have taken him under their wing and are nursing him back to health. The woman who found Willy was taken aback by his condition when she stumbled upon him in a remote area of eastern Utah. He was extremely dehydrated, malnourished, had a flea infestation, and worst of all, he had untreated porcupine quills that had been lodged in his skin for several weeks, resulting in serious injuries to both eyes. However, the Community Animal Welfare Society has taken Willy in and is providing him with the necessary care to ensure a full recovery.
Willy was found wandering aimlessly in the vast Utah desert, visibly in pain and distress. The Community Animal Welfare Society (CAWS), Utah’s oldest animal rescue organization, was alarmed by his condition and immediately stepped in to assist. In a Facebook post, CAWS expressed their concern over Willy’s condition – he was starving, thirsty, blind, and required urgent medical attention. The team of devoted volunteers at CAWS quickly took action to help this homeless and helpless pup.
Willy was discovered with loads of porcupine quills piercing through his entire body, which is a sad story. But, there’s a silver lining to it. The Community Animal Welfare Society (CAWS) came to Willy’s rescue and found him to be a grateful dog. Despite the severe pain he must have been experiencing, Willy was docile, calm, and cooperative with his rescuers. He even wagged his tail when they interacted with him during his surgery. Thanks to the generosity of their donors, CAWS was able to cover Willy’s medical expenses. However, the quills had caused significant damage, and the vets couldn’t save his eyes. They removed a vast number of quills from his face, feet, and eyes, causing unimaginable agony.
Willy’s eye surgery has brought about a notable improvement in his health, all thanks to the efforts of the Community Animal Welfare Society (CAWS).
My heart goes out to Willy who is clearly experiencing difficulty.
As Willy goes through his medical treatment and recovery, he is being looked after by Tiffany Henline, an experienced foster from CAWS. Facebook updates from the organization indicate that Willy is making progress and adjusting to his new temporary home with ease. The group’s post describes him as a happy puppy who is on the road to recovery.
