My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please meet little Miss Caitlin Colada! She's a beautiful red dapple girl who's as delightful as a cool drink on a hot summer day! Caitlin was originally picked up as a stray north of Houston. When the shelter's plea went out to the rescue community, DREAM was the organization who stepped up and said "YES! without any doubt or hesitation... we want to help her!" Our DREAM Team Volunteer was on the road within the hour to claim this 2 year old, 9.5 lb, broken little soul!

Caitlin is a skinny little thing and needs to gain about 2.5 lbs to get to a healthier weight. One of her amazing veterinarians believes she was probably hit by a car, as she has abrasions and scabbing on her right hip and thigh. She also has a fractured right hip; and is completely non-weight bearing on that leg. Caitlin isn't acting as if the injury is painful, but the look in her eyes certainly shows the pain in her heart!

DREAM is currently consulting with Caitlin's team of veterinarians to determine if her fracture can be surgically repaired. On a high note however, this little fighter is heart worm negative, so that gives us something positive to focus on, in the event she does undergo surgery! Please keep Caitlin in your thoughts and prayers as we do whatever possible to turn her little life around so she can enjoy the blessings of being a DREAM Dachsie!
