(Center Township, PA) The Beaver County Humane Society is encouraging pet owners to keep their pets warm after rescuing a dog that is suffering from “severe frostbite” on December 23rd, 2024. Thirteen-year-old Max was brought in by a stranger to the shelter who found him huddled on a porch with his paws both bleeding and swollen. Even though Max had frostbite on all four paws, he is now walking after three toe amputations and three surgeries. The Beaver County Humane Society confirms that pets need to be in a warm area inside and owners need to both watch their pets and reduce the time their pets are outside. If pets need to stay outside, the shelter recommends giving pets water and a shelter that is both windproof and insulated and has straw bedding inside.
