Princess Donut

Princess Donut is taking it easy this summer — vet’s orders!
This 2.5-year-old girl was found as a stray by a good Samaritan and brought to the vet where they discovered her jaw had been broken in the past and healed incorrectly. Unfortunately, she couldn’t open her mouth more than half an inch, which meant she couldn’t pant like most dogs to cool herself down. 😥 An added side effect of her condition, Princess Donut also had some seriously stinky breath! 🥴 The great news is, she had a surgical consult at UGA vet and thanks to an amazing vet team there, finally got the surgery she desperately needed (as well as a dental cleaning she desperately needed) and is officially on the road to recovery! 🎉
Just a few weeks ago, this sweet girl couldn’t open her mouth more than half an inch because of an old injury that had healed the wrong way and now she is already eating, drinking, and chewing like a normal dog. She went from only opening her jaw ~1/2 inch to opening it a few inches now! Hopefully she’ll continue to improve as she heals and works those muscles more.
Despite a rough past, Princess Donut is all heart — she’s sweet, dog-friendly, and so deserving of a fresh start. She’s currently in a loving foster home, soaking up the snuggles, enjoying soft snacks, and making furry friends while she waits for her forever home.
