LIZZY*

Lizzy was a pointer used for hunting and breeding. When she became old and ill with cancer her ‘owner’ threw her out of a moving vehicle causing severe damage to her jaw and wounds all over her body. She was found on a dirt road starving, a day away from death.

Her rescuer contacted our founder to ask if she could take her in as she use to run a home hospice for senior and disabled animals. She accepted and Lizzy started months of recuperation, putting on weight and two surgeries to remove the tumours. She also suffered numerous infections due to her low immune system but slowly healed and lived a happy life for 4 years before passing away in her sleep in 2017 at the approximate age of 16 years.

Lizzy is the first inductee into the Animal HEROES Hall Of Fame on May 28th, 2020.
