Luckie Needs Your Help 

This is a story about a girl named Luckie. Not thirty minutes after we dropped one of our rescues off at his forever home, we were on our way to pick up a Pekin hen who lost her flock to predators. The plan was to pick her up, drive her to Erie, where her adopters were going to take her. Since no one was able to meet us, she was left in the driveway in a kennel. As soon as soon as we saw her, we could tell she had not had a bath in a long time.  Then we saw her feet and knew right away that she had bumble foot. This duck needed to see a vet and could not be adopted out in that condition. Here we are two weeks later. We have seen the vet, she’s on antibiotics, painkillers, and the vet has cut away the dark mass on the bottom of her foot.  X-rays have shown that the bone in her foot has changed and she may always walk with a limp.

This rescue has really challenged the organization, with the vet services expending the our resources. While the prognosis looks good for Luckie, she still needs considerable help. You can support Luckie by donating to us to help continue her care. Luckie cannot get her feet wet so puppy pads are desperately needed. Luckie may be a lucky duck, but she and other ducks face an uphill fight when people forget to care for an animal they promised to love and protect. Please consider donating.
