While Lucy was getting much-needed medical attention in Egypt, SNARR knew something had to be done to help this poor puppy. Their plan – tell the owner Lucy died. Lucy was immediately taken and put on a flight to JFK airport.

Lauren Connelly of SNARR said that had they left Lucy with her owner, she would likely have starved because she couldn’t eat with her broken jaw. Lucy was taken to Connelly’s home in Pittsburgh and then the following morning to the hospital. An orthopedic specialist helped rebuild Lucy’s jaw. She wore a brace to help her jaw bones heal the right way.
