The little puppy that suffered a radial and ulnar fracture after falling down a set of stairs, an incident that prompted animal protectors to raise 16,500 pesos for her operation on Monday, is now recovering favorably following surgery. Activist Yenney Caballero, who organized the fundraiser, shared on Facebook that the puppy named Princesa underwent surgery and had fixators placed, with only her recovery remaining.

“We did it, folks, once again we did it together,” Caballero remarked, expressing gratitude to everyone who supported the cause, from those who donated money and shared the post, to those who offered positive messages. The animal protector also posted a video showing Princesa walking with difficulty as a result of the surgical intervention. However, the dog's strength is evident, indicating a swift and successful recovery.

“I will continue saving lives; I will keep being a light on this planet. This is my cause; nothing will stop me. I am doing good for living beings who deserve it,” Caballero stated.

Animal Rescue Efforts Continue

Caballero, residing in San José de Las Lajas, Mayabeque, has repeatedly demonstrated her fervent defense of animal rights. Recently, she was involved in rescuing a dog that was locked up and starving.

Caballero learned about the situation of a Siberian Husky puppy that had been locked up for three days in an abandoned house in San José de Las Lajas and immediately went to save the unfortunate animal. She broke a piece of the door’s acrylic and, upon inserting her phone camera, confirmed that the place was deserted and the prisoner was a puppy.

Outraged and unsure of what to do, Caballero eventually decided to free the animal through the acrylic opening and left a message for the dog's owners to find her and, if they wished, report her to the police.
