Meet Laura   

  No DescriptionADOPTED!!!


Laura was first brought to N.A.H by the Middletown Animal Control Officer. She had been hit by a car and suffered massive injuries to the face and head, including a broken jaw.

Once we received permission from the town, Dr. Civic surgically repaired her jaw. The town relinquished Laura to N.A.H, where staff members nursed Laura back to health. Due to the injuries Laura received from the accident, Laura has lost her vision, however she has not lost her spirit.
 
With the love and encouragement Laura has received during her stay, Laura has adjusted to her vision loss, and has developed a sweet and loving personality.

The Newport Animal Hospital staff has begun looking for an appropriate forever home for Laura. We feel a quiet home, with Laura as an only pet, and a caretaker who is willing to understand her special needs will be the right fit for her.

Below you will find photos documenting Laura's recovery.
