Success Stories (Minka)

Feb 2015
Owner adopted her at 18 months of age.
Five days ago Minka collapsed on the lawn. X Rays and bloods revealed a large
mass on her liver. Euthanasia was recommended.
Minka’s owner wanted her husband to see her before putting her to sleep so she
took her home – and changed her mind.
