Introducing Mia, an extraordinary puppy born with a rare and unique condition. Mia stands out in the canine world with her five legs and two tails, a sight seldom witnessed in the animal kingdom.

Despite her captivating appearance, Mia’s journey has been far from easy. Her previous owners, unable to provide the specialized care and therapy that she would need due to her condition, made the heart-wrenching decision to surrender her.

Fortunately, Mia found refuge and hope at Casas Cunas Animal Shelter. The dedicated team at the shelter has taken on the responsibility of seeking the best possible care for Mia. At just two months old, she’s already faced her share of challenges.

Mia’s extra paw and tails are situated near her stomach, and she also suffers from other genetic anomalies, including having two vaginas and two anuses, which means she uses both to eliminate waste.

Currently, the shelter is reaching out for donations to support Mia’s upcoming surgeries. Before the procedures can take place, she will undergo more precise x-rays and ultrasounds to determine the best course of action for her medical needs.

Remarkably, Mia’s littermates have not been affected by the same condition, and they have all found loving homes. This unique situation is reminiscent of a case in 2021 when a puppy named Skipper had similar features. It was speculated that Mia may have originally been meant to have a twin, but the separation process was incomplete, resulting in her unusual traits.

Five days later, Mia is scheduled for her first surgery, with another one planned for tomorrow. She has been receiving constant attention and care from veterinarians who are determined to improve her quality of life.

The latest updates on Mia’s condition are promising, and there is hope that she can lead a fulfilling and healthy life. However, her journey is far from over, and the costs associated with her care are significant.

If you wish to contribute to Mia’s medical expenses and support her on this extraordinary journey, your generosity will be greatly appreciated. Mia’s resilience and unique story serve as a testament to the power of compassion and care in the face of adversity.
