Kynlee Rogers He is a 10 -year -old girl Born with the Leporino lip. For a long time he asked his mother, Kimberly, because it was “different” from other children, a difficult question to answer for any parent. However, since he met his Tennee dog, born with the same conditionno longer feels the need to ask that question. Looking at him, he found a special bond who made her understand that she is not alone.
This wonderful story is an example of the important work done by Cleft Rescue Unita non-profit organization founded in 2023 by Lindsay Weisman. The goal of this initiative is to put dogs in contact with cranio -fack defects with people who live the same condition. Weisman explained:
We want to combine the two Schisi communities: the human and the canine communities. We receive puppies from all over the country and are often adopted by people with the same feature. For them it is a special experience to see an animal that looks like them.
In animals labiopalatoschisi is very difficult to cure
There Labiopalatoschisi It is a congenital malformation that occurs both in humans and dogs for genetic and environmental causes. In children, it can involve surgery and therapies To improve the quality of life, while in puppies this condition represents an even bigger challenge.
In fact, a puppy with Leporino lip has difficulty breastfeeding correctly, risking. If it is not recognized and treated early with assisted feeding, this condition can lead to a premature death.
The Cleft Rescue Unit organization works for save these puppiesremoving them from the hands of breeders or owners who are unable to take care of it. Once they manage to feed themselves independently, they are entrusted to families who can give them love and attention they need. The combination with people with labiopalatoschisi is not only a way to give dogs a house, but it also becomes one source of strength and comfort For those who live this condition.
Kynlee found a partner in Tennee who understands it without the need for words. Their friendship is a testimony of how diversity can be a reason for connection and not of isolation. Stories like them show that, sometimes, a small four -legged friend is enough to make us feel less alone and more understood.
