In a state of shock, Luna was taken to a veterinary clinic, where her puppies were sadly found to have died. After they were removed, the medical team moved on to trying to heal her broken legs. The wounds were so horrendous, untreated for so long, that the open wounds on her legs had become infected. Her rescuers said that they could smell her rotting flesh when she came into the room.
