Vira, the dutch-marked Flemish Giant we found dumped near the Richmond Auto Mall a year and a half ago, has had a reoccurring persistent infection in her foot for the past year leaving our vet no recourse but to do a partial amputation October 19. Β In spite of her unknown age, mild heart murmur and other problems, she came through the surgery just fine. Β Huge thanks to Dr. Joseph Martinez at the Little Paws Animal Hospital in Richmond, BC!
