Fluffy is a street dog who lives on the verandah of the Shri Radharaman Temple in Vrindavan. He spends his days begging for food and love from those who live in the area and those who visit the temple.
This past summer, Fluffy contracted a terrible skin disease called mange. Mange is a very painful condition caused by small parasites that burrow down inside the skin. The intense itching caused Fluffy to scratch off most of his fur and large patches of his skin. The resulting wounds became severely infected and Fluffy almost died.
Luckily, Braj Animal Care was there to help. Under a veterinarian’s guidance, the team gave Fluffy antibiotics and special pills that kill parasites. We also applied betadine, a type of antiseptic liquid, on Fluffy’s skin. We also made sure Fluffy had sufficient food to eat every day.
Within a couple of months, Fluffy was healthier and stronger than ever. We are so thankful to be able to help dogs like Fluffy.
