Summary
- A street dog named Princess was found covered in hundreds of ticks.
- A California-based rescue, Loving PAWSabilities, Inc., stepped in to help.
- Carolina Mora coordinated the dog's transport from Mexico to California.
A small street dog, known as Princess, was discovered living on the streets of Mexicali, Mexico, in a dire condition. She was heavily infested with hundreds of ticks and exhibited signs of prolonged neglect, facing a life-limiting future without intervention.
Learning of Princess's plight, the California-based rescue organization Loving PAWSabilities, Inc. stepped in. Rescuers noted the dog's trusting nature despite her severe circumstances. The scale of the tick infestation posed immediate health risks, including anemia and potential disease transmission.
A Southern California native, Carolina Mora, heroically answered an urgent plea for help. Princess received a veterinary examination and initial treatment at a clinic in Mexicali. Mora then took charge, coordinating the transportation of Princess from Mexico to California, securing a safe foster home and offering the dog a vital opportunity for recovery and a new life.
