Weeks old puppy with 'severe head wound' recovering after rescue by Irish animal charity

A 3-week old puppy with a "severe head wound" is recovering after being rescued by an Irish animal charity. 

My Lovely Horse Rescue (MLHR) has posted a series of videos of the puppy on their official Facebook page since her rescue on Sunday (January 28), with the charity stating: "We are 24/7, it just doesn't stop. Heart break after heart break." 

In one video, which MLHR flagged as "very distressing", the little dog is being held by a volunteer and can be heard screaming in pain. 

The puppy - which has been named Baby Jude - was taken to veterinary specialists where vets confirmed her skull has been "slightly damaged". 

In an update, MLHR stated: "...She still has a chance, she’s so young that it can repair. It’s too early to tell if she’ll have neurological problems. This 3 week old baby has fight in her, she’ll get nothing but the best treatment, we know you are all rooting for her, thank you. 

"Please donate, she will receive the best treatment but it's going to be very expensive. She deserves it, she deserves every chance we can possibly give her." 

The charity confirmed the puppy came from "a neglectful situation".
