This sweet English Spot/Dwarf mix, white and brown spotted, approx 4-5lbs, was surrendered to a CT ACO shelter, along with her mate Pugsly (picture pending). Her former person had become very ill, and could no longer provide for them. they had been at the shelter almost 2 months, before 3 Bunnies became aware of them. Seeing Pippin needed medical attention, 3 Bunnies immediately offered help (the shelter had taken the rabbits to a veterinarian).

As you can see, Pippin had a large area under her chin and neck that is raw and crusted with dried pus. Her front feet had raw areas, and she would only gingerly put weight on them, often curling them under her. She was immediately seen by our vet. Her teeth are mostly nubs (she is an older girl), thus causing her to drool. Pippin was cleaned up, and put on antibiotics, a special skin cream, and pain meds. Two days into treatment, Pippin was eating hay, pellets and chopped up greens. Her neck and feet showed improvement.

Pippin just went for a follow up, and is having to have dental work done for molar spurs. It was also noted that her side and hind leg is missing fur, and we suspect she is pulling out the fur due to hormones, so the vet feels she can not wait to be spayed, which is also being done. Pippin is such a sweet girl, and her mate, Pugsly, takes such wonderful care of her. She has a bit of a long road ahead of her in rehab, but with plenty of TLC and proper vet care, we are optimistic that Pippin's future looks bright!!
