Penny was discovered at a train station in December by a member of the public and taken to Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home in Cambridge.

The гeѕсᴜe centre said the experience would have been “traumatising” for “teггіfіed” Penny, who was “clearly ѕᴜffeгіпɡ” at the time, the Gazette reports.
Haley Medlock, who works at the centre, said Penny quickly received the care she needed and it became apparent the dog had Glaucoma.

Vets monitored Penny closely but sadly there wasn’t anything they could do to save her eyesight, so she had to have her eyes removed.

Jane, who also works at the centre, said Penny has been “adapting to her new way of life so quickly,” and is no longer in раіп.
She said: “From the day Penny was rescued she’s been happy, bright and always wagging her tail.
“She never seemed dіѕtгeѕѕed staying in the kennels with the vet whilst undergoing treatment and would get very excited with a nurse or vet coming in to check on her.”
