Aryia – In Foster – Midlands

Aryia

We have no words for this one.. But a picture speaks a thousand!!!!

Please meet #Aryia ..

One of our volunteers, Kate, received a late message Thursday night to alert us to a girl who had been severely neglected and abandoned in her own home

The owner (if we can call her that!!!) was keeping Aryia locked in a crate at the back of the kitchen covered by a door and blankets, where she was only able to come out to do her business and to eat

The lady who alerted us to her, was inspecting the property to remove all animals from the house which she believed to be a few cats and kittens.
She had previously phoned the owner to ask if any other animals lived there and which she was told, “no just the cats”.

But during the visit she noticed a dog who was clearly neglected in a crate hidden behind a door

As there was no water in the crate and so the woman asked to get the dog out so she could have water. The owner agreed but said she had to go straight back into her crate. Goodness knows how long it had been since that dog had drunk anything, she was incredibly thirsty

Thankfully the lady had seen this poor girl and reached out to us to say, this dog had been completely cast aside, living in a wreck, being left to live in her own urine and goodness knows what else!!

We HAD to act quickly; we needed this girl safe!!

Michael, a foster volunteer in the North West, stepped in to transport this girl from her ‘home’ at 10pm at night!!!
He owner willingly gave her up stating she didn’t want her anymore because her 18 month old baby wanted a rabbit !!!

Michael helped bring Aryia across to the Midlands where he met Mark, Kate’s husband, to bring her back to safety.

Mark finally got home at 12:30am with a very frightened little girl but she was SAFE…

Michael & Mark, thank you for bringing our girl to safety! You are heroes for putting this little girl’s needs before your own

Yesterday morning, Kate gently assessed Aryia… she was petrified, and it took over 40 minutes for Kate to coax Aryia to immerge from her crate, she was so closed down.

Aryia was covered in fleas, they were jumping off her, her back is covered in open sores, her feet are covered in sores and thicker skin from where the fleas have been living. She was imprisoned in a crate literally being eaten alive by fleas…

Her eyes were gunky, she was filthy, she stunk of wee and was completely covered in urine stains

Obviously, she has been bred from as well, we wouldn’t expect anything less considering the calibre of owner she sadly ended up with

After assessing Aryia, Kate took her straight to the vet who confirmed Aryia has a double eye ulcer in one of her eyes, she has cherry eye that will need repocketing, along with open sores that are infected

She had come away with a bag of treatment, eye drops, antibiotics and pain relief, along with a fast-working flea treatment.

Aryia has had a small transformation on the exterior today but has such a long way to go to conquer the inner transformation

She is so in desperate need of love but isn’t sure how to receive it yet

Kate is just a pit stop for Aryia whilst we organise a long-term foster for her, so she will be moving over the next few days.

Huge thank you Kate, her husband Mark and Michael who stepped in to rescue Aryia from the most miserable life, we are very grateful

So please welcome Aryia we can’t wait to see the next part of her journey!
