Cupcake was brought to the Atlanta Humane Society along with her brother Romeo when their previous owner could no longer care for them.
Sadly, Romeo had severe heartworm disease and passed away due to heart failure soon after they arrived in our care. We held Cupcake tight and assured her that it would be okay.
After experiencing the heartbreaking loss of her brother, we found several tumors on Cupcake’s body- one on her head, one on her belly, and one on her back leg. Our Shelter Medicine Team worked to remove the tumors to provide Cupcake a better quality of life.
After surgery, we found Cupcake a loving foster home where both her heart and her body could heal. We made sure her foster home had another dog for Cupcake to bond with after the loss of her brother, and she began to thrive.
After a few weeks of recovery in her foster home, Cupcake was adopted. It didn’t take long for her to steal the hearts of her new forever family, and now her golden years will be filled with all the love that she deserves.
Your donation today will help us care for animals just like Cupcake.
