China was a young brown female local cross breed that made the lush greenery of the Chinese Gardens as her home. Far from the paradise that one can imagine, she had to constantly forage for food in the nearby industrial areas and to hide from the more dominant dogs and from the people that deemed her a pest. But she was a friendly and mild mannered dog that never bothered anyone and seemed resigned to her fate.
It was April of 2004 that we received a call from the stray feeder around the area that she had her front left leg broken and bleeding. She could have been hit by a car, but more likely by a person with a stick, as it seemed a precise wound. By now, her leg was infected and in much worse a state than Faith’s (see Faith’s story previously)
China is currently recovering in a vet clinic and we are hoping that the wound recovers well, for further infection will mean amputation
