Lucky, the Bulldog, was born with Atresia ani type 3, a severe congenital defect resulting in her being born without an anus, thus requiring life-saving surgery.
Dr. Chris Lancelott discussed the complexity of Lucky's surgery, explaining, 'The surgery is challenging... as type 3 atresia means the closed bowel is far away from where the anus should be.'
Owner Frances Silk noted, 'We realised within the first week of Lucky being born that she wasn't 'plumbed' correctly... the operation went well and three months later, Lucky is slowly going from strength to strength.'
