Dog With Her Uterus Hanging, Passing Out

An unrecognizable Alabai breed dog was found in the city of Nalchik, Russia.

She was emaciated, riddled with diseases, and had patches of skin exposed with festering wounds. Dog weighed about 66 pounds while it is normal for Alabais to weigh about 100 pounds or more.

Doctors sadly announced she had minimal chances of survival. The loving volunteers at KP took Almira in and began her arduous recovery process. There were not all the tools and means needed to rescue her, so they took her to Moscow.

The good-hearted locals rallied with their dogs to donate blood for transfusion and helped with other needs. She refused to eat or go. But in time, she gained some confidence and strength. The volunteers noticed that her wagging tail was a good omen.

The owner of the animal rescue shelter also remarked on her unusual strength and will to live. During those few months, her health slowly jumped from ‘critical’ to ‘stable’.

Liza, her caregiver, reported about Almira’s current state: “Now Almira feels better, but unfortunately we have some problems with her weight. It is not so easy to get her fit because of her health. We are working on it.”

Two months ago she could not stand on her legs and now she goes first on the walk! The volunteers kept taking good care of her, giving her the attention and love she needed.

“Unfortunately, in our country, there are no working laws that protect animals and they are often thrown away like a broken toy. Our mission is to cure, find a home and show a personal example that people need to care about them. And of course, all of them need human love.”

Her health has normalized and she finally looks and feels normal, though it is still not optimal. The shelter is actively looking for new owners for Almira, as she still needs constant supervision and support from a veterinarian due to her health problems.

She has pervading problems with weight and diseases. Let’s hope she will soon find a comfy and happy home where she may finally rest from her previous life.
