Honey survived a devastating hind-leg wound and learned to trust again

Diagnosis: a deep right hind-limb and hip wound with extensive soft-tissue damage.

Honey was found in Portland exhausted and unable to protect the injured area. A local responder kept the animal warm, limited movement, and arranged an urgent veterinary assessment.

The examination confirmed a deep right hind-limb and hip wound with extensive soft-tissue damage. The care plan prioritized pain control, diagnostic imaging, infection prevention, careful wound management, and nutritional support.

Daily dressing changes protected the exact injury site while the veterinary team monitored appetite, mobility, temperature, and comfort. Rehabilitation was introduced gradually as healing became stable.

By January 19, 2026, Honey had completed treatment. The wound had closed, normal activity had returned, and follow-up checks supported discharge into a foster-to-adoption placement.
