My Story
Hannah arrived at SAINTS in 2019 after being transferred by Coquitlam Animal Control. Initially thought to be a typical nine-month-old Border Collie cross, it soon became apparent that Hannah had a significant physical condition.
Hannah suffers from a congenital malformation of her reproductive organs, including a missing urethra. This condition causes her bladder to empty directly into her vaginal area, resulting in a consistent urine leak. Her genital area is also malformed, with internal tissue protruding externally, necessitating daily baths and ointment application to prevent infections. In addition to these challenges, Hannah has deformed kidneys, making urinary tract infections a common occurrence.
Despite her medical complexities, Hannah is incredibly happy and blissfully unaware of any physical limitations. Safe and cared for at SAINTS for the rest of her life, she lives stress-free days surrounded by her best friends and showered with attention from her human caregivers.
Hannah's resilience and joyful spirit inspire everyone at SAINTS, where she continues to thrive despite her challenges. She is a beloved member of our sanctuary, where she enjoys a life filled with love and comfort. Staff have nicknamed her "Hannah - Banana".
