A sad story has turned a little brighter for a puppy in Central Kansas.

“Hudson”, the puppy that was injured in a high speed, head-on collision on Highway 281 in Stafford County Thursday was released from Countryside Veterinary Monday evening after undergoing surgery to repair a broken leg.

“Hudson” is now at home with her new family that adopted her after the crash.

Misty Blakeslee, a paramedic in Stafford County, who worked the accident, adopted Hudson and agreed to pay for the dog’s medical expenses resulting from injuries suffered in the crash. The previous owner, who was involved in the crash, declined the dog’s medical care but allowed Blakeslee to adopt the dog.

After the story was published Thursday evening, donations poured in and ended up covering all of “Hudson”‘s medical expenses. Blakeslee said “We are just amazed at the response and the donations. We are very thankful to all of who donated.”

“Hudson” will reportedly require six follow-up visits and is expected to make a full recovery in 4-8 weeks.
