I've found my furever family!

SPIN got a call from a vet about a standard poodle in crisis. They thought Lilly was in an Addison's crisis but tests were not confirmed yet. Could we help? Yes. Yes we could. Absolutely we could. At the time, it was touch and go. Lilly was very sick and struggling. But now at least she had a fighting chance. The next morning, Lilly was doing better. Still not eating but electrolytes improved. The following day's report was even better. Lilly had eaten a little bit of wet food on her own. Her bloodwork was much improved. Kidney values were good. Electrolytes were much improved too. The Addison's test was confirmed as positive. Lilly improved through the day, so much so that she was released to her foster home that evening.  In her foster home, Lilly was somewhat confused. But she has rallied and has proven to be just a darling little dog. On her first test post Addison's diagnosis, Lilly was exactly where they wanted her. 

Once Lilly had some time to settle into her foster home and adjust to her newly diagnosed medical condition, SPIN began looking for her forever home. And we found a lovely home who will cherish and love her. Here is their first post: Hey Friends! Henrietta here (formerly Lilly, my new family had to change my name as one of my human sisters has the same name…can you believe the coincidence?!?!). What a big day! I went to what my foster parents said is my forever home, I’m not sure what that is but it sure seems neat! I have an older brother Hamish who is helping to show me the ropes. Not that I really need much help learning how to poodle…First thing I did after coming into my new house was eat his breakfast and take myself on a self-guided tour to check the place out. We then went on a walk in my new neighbourhood and I have been getting so many treats! People kept on coming up to me telling me how pretty I am! I could get used to this! Luckily my foster parents packed my favourite ball. My new mom is sitting with me a lot which is helping me take this all in. I can’t believe how lucky I am! First, awesome foster parents, second a super cool ball that is my prized possession, and now a family for keeps?!?! Wow! Thanks so much to SPIN and my foster parents for giving me the chance I needed to really become the poodle I always wanted to be.
