A veterinary nurse has earned a top national award for transforming the life of a puppy that was thrown out of a van in Yorkshire.
Megan Everett, who is head nurse at Chantry Vets on Brindley Way, Wakefield, went above and beyond the call of duty to give Dodger a second chance of a happy life. The young Lurcher was starving and riddled with parasites, with patches of red-raw skin, when he was dumped beside a road near Wakefield. A passer-by who witnessed what happened spent a few hours trying to catch the pup and took him to Chantry Vets where the team rallied to look after him.
He looked neglected. He was only 13kg but should have been at least 18kg at the time. He was bald in places; his skin was raw, and he had fleas and mites. “He needed to be fed every few hours because he had been starved. “He started to come outside with me at lunch times, and I couldn’t resist. “He was very nervous and is most fearful of men. We knew he would be a work in progress. For the first three months he wouldn’t go for a walk with my husband and would run home if we practised recall.
