Her Journey of Survival
Flores’ story is one of heartbreak and resilience.

And yet, through the care of her amazing vets, your continued support, and countless prayers, she has come so far.
Prayers Are Being Heard

What We’ve Learned
During surgery, the vets discovered Flores had two mummified puppies in her uterus, causing a severe and dangerous infection.
- The infection was addressed during surgery.
- She was started on medications and antibiotics and is already feeling better.

A Big Day for Flores
Today was a significant day for our sweet Flores, filled with both challenges and progress.
Moving Forward with Diagnostics
This morning, Flores was transferred from the orthopedics team to the soft tissue department for additional diagnostics. While under their care, we discovered some difficult truths about her condition.
Heartbreaking Developments
An early morning ultrasound brought devastating news: Flores’ puppies have started to mineralize. This means they have passed away but remain inside her, putting her at extreme risk of infection. Her body has begun naturally trying to expel them, but time is critical.
The priority now is emergency surgery to remove them before a life-threatening infection sets in. The doctors have managed to pull part of them out, and we are so very grateful she is in the best hands possible.
If you’re not familiar with her story, please keep reading—what Flores has endured is beyond unimaginable.
- Bilateral hip fracture
- Broken leg
- Broken shoulder
- Skull fracture
- A damaged eye that needs to be removed
And now, we’ve learned something even more heartbreaking—Flores was pregnant.
Thinking of Flores
Before I head to bed tonight, my heart is with our new friend, Flores.
- The struggles she’s faced.
- The fear and pain she’s endured.
- How desperately she needed help and support.
- How much she still needs us now.
On the Road to Healing
Today is a big day for our brave girl, Flores! She is on her way to K-State, where her surgery, healing, and recovery will begin.
Surrounded by love, care, and support, Flores is prepared for the trip ahead.
- Her IV is taped and secure.
- She’s receiving pain medication to ensure she stays as comfortable as possible during the ride.
- The plan is for her to rest and sleep throughout the entire trip.
Flores has endured more pain than any living being should, and we refuse to let her story end in pain.
X-rays Confirmed the Devastating Truth:
-
Broken Right Leg
- This injury will likely require surgery and weeks of limited movement to heal properly.
-
Broken Right Hip
- While severe, the break allows her to relieve herself on her own, which is critical for her long-term recovery.
-
Broken Right Shoulder
- Another major fracture that makes mobility difficult and will require intensive care.
-
Suspected Skull Fracture
- It’s unclear if there is brain damage, but she is being closely monitored for any neurological symptoms.
For nearly six days, Flores lay in a shelter, hurting and alone. When we learned about her, we acted immediately to get her the help she needed.
A Story of Heartbreak and Hope
We couldn’t risk losing her. That’s why we acted swiftly to save Flores.
Looking at her photo, it’s impossible not to feel sick knowing what she’s endured:
- Someone hit her.
- Someone starved her.
- Someone hit her in the face.
- Then, someone abandoned her.
From there, she ended up in a kill shelter, her life hanging by a thread.
