Bird of prey loses it's lunch: Stray poodle found home
A stray poodle picked up by a bird of prey ended up saved, not snacked on, when the bird dropped the dog on the grounds of a Sechelt, B.C., nursing home.
The six-year-old poodle, dubbed "Miracle May" by workers, dropped out of the heavens and appeared in the kitchen of a Sunshine Coast care home, desperately in need of rescue. Nancy Skelcher found the furry white creature, shivering in the kitchen of Shorncliffe Nursing Home in Sechelt, at the end of her night shift at around 5:30 a.m.
May suffered several gouges to her neck and chest from about 10 deep puncture, claw marks to her back and multiple broken ribs from the harrowing ordeal.
May was likely a stray before her unlikely “rescue”. She was found without identification, had severely overgrown nails and badly decayed teeth. The shelter don't how long she had been wandering without care but according to them, she was obviously very neglected.
The SPCA tried to look for May’s owner, but no one has come forward.
Now, the shelter is now trying to raise $3,500 to $4,000 for May’s surgeries, as well as to spay her and remove a hernia and some mammary gland tumours.
