¡Hola! Hoy les contaré como ayudamos a burrito a sanar. Hace un mes aproximadamente me llamó una chica pidiendo ayuda con respecto a un perro con una miasis cutánea en una de sus patas traseras, esta es una enfermedad parasitaria que se produce cuando las larvas de moscas infectan la piel. En la localidad quisieron ayudarlo, pero por falta de conocimiento aplicaron ciertas sustancias que no eran aptas para su herida, por ejemplo: aceite quemado, creolina y alcohol. Estaba en una situación tan critica que incluso muchos de los habitantes de la zona amenazaban con envenenarlo e incluso llegaron a lanzar agua caliente.
About a month ago a girl called me asking for help with a dog with a cutaneous myiasis in one of his hind legs, this is a parasitic disease that occurs when fly larvae infect the skin. In the locality they wanted to help him, but due to lack of knowledge they applied certain substances that were not suitable for his wound, for example: burned oil, creolin and alcohol. He was in such a critical situation that even many of the inhabitants of the area threatened to poison him and even threw hot water at him.
Al principio una de mis amigas pensaba ir hasta la zona y ayudarlo, pero en vista de que no pudo ya que también tenía que rescatar a otros animalitos decidí ir yo y hacerme cargo del perrito, lo llevamos a un veterinario para ver si su patica se podía salvar y nos llenó de alegría saber que mediante un tratamiento podía mejorar. Fue cuando pusimos manos a la obra, en el trayecto de las curas se unieron 2 amigas y un amigo 
At first, one of my friends was going to go to the area and help him, but seeing that she couldn't because she also had to rescue other animals, I decided to go and take care of the puppy. We took him to a veterinarian to see if his paw could be saved and we were overjoyed to know that through treatment he could improve. That's when we went to work, on the journey of the cures 2 friends and a friend
Fueron semanas de curas, ya que no lográbamos encontrar un lugar que lo acogiera en su proceso de sanación, debido a esto su herida no podía cerrar por la cantidad de moscas a las que se exponía por estar en la calle. Una vecina de la localidad que fue la persona que más se preocupó por él, se ofreció para tenerlo en su casa y esto nos dio mas esperanzas a que sanara rápido. Fue aquí donde todo comenzó a verse mejor.
It was weeks of treatments, since we couldn't find a place that would take him in during his healing process, due to this his wound couldn't close because of the amount of flies he was exposed to by being on the street. A neighbor from the locality who was the person who cared the most about him, offered to have him at her house and this gave us more hope that he would heal quickly. It was here that everything started to look better.
La primera vez que vimos a burro estaba muy delgado, sin apetito, con mal olor y muy débil, sin embargo, se portó muy bien y se dejó curar. Gracias a la ayuda de varias personas se pudo recoger fondos para comprar medicamentos y comida. Los medicamentos que utilizamos fueron los siguientes: bactrovet de plata, enrofloxacina de 50mg, omeprazol, solución yodada para la limpieza y nitrofurazona para cicatrizar, gazas, jeringas, y vitaminas.
The first time we saw Burrito he was very thin, with no appetite, smelly and very weak, however, he behaved very well and let himself be cured. Thanks to the help of several people we were able to raise funds to buy medicines and food. The medicines we used were the following: silver bactrovet, enrofloxacin 50mg, omeprazole, iodine solution for cleaning and nitrofurazone for healing, gauze, syringes, and vitamins.
Poco a poco burro fue cambiando su semblante, comenzaron a notarse los cambios, ya no estaba tan delgado, estaba más activo, y su patica cada vez mejor, algunos de sus deditos se perdieron debido a la miasis avanzada, pero llegamos a tiempo para que no perdiera por completo su patica.
Little by little Burrito changed his appearance, the changes began to be noticed, he was no longer so thin, he was more active, and his paw was getting better, some of his toes were lost due to the advanced myiasis, but we arrived in time so that he did not lose his paw completely.
Actualmente burro se encuentra muy bien en un hogar con otros amiguitos perrunos, con una persona muy amable y llena de mucho amor para dar. Solo queda sanar ese corazoncito que una vez pasó por tanto pero que gracias a esta persona quedara en el pasado.
