New Home for Pup After Successful Surgery

A new happy chapter is beginning for Mookie, a dog found roaming in southeastern Connecticut last month.

After several surgeries to have a tumor removed, she is healthy and going to a new home.

Waterford-East Lyme Animal Control took Mookie in last month when they found her roaming, then launched a fundraising campaign and appealed to donors to help.

Thanks to many generous people and several surgeries, the tumor is gone and animal control began accepting applications for a new home for Mookie.

With applicant screening underway, animal control received some good news last week. The tumor was benign and unlikely to come back.

Today, there is more good news for Mookie. She has left the pound and is heading to her forever home.
