Help Us Get Justice for Ladybug!

By Humane Society of Ventura County

   Ladybug was brought to the HSVC by our Humane Officers in late November after being impounded in the field with a severe untreated head injury. Further veterinary treatment and x-rays showed several fractures throughout her body in various stages of healing, including a severe previously sustained knee injury. Though her knee injury is not currently causing her discomfort, it is possible she may require surgery in the future if it is exacerbated with age and growth.
