After being located by a rescuer, Alisha was transported to a veterinarian, where she started her lengthy journey toward recovery. It was a little but considerable comfort when Alisha did not test positive for parvovirus or fever, despite the fact that she was in a frail state. A harsh reality was revealed during the examination performed by the veterinarian: the extent of her skin illness was considerable, and it would take at least two months of treatment for her to recover. She quickly began taking medicinal baths as part of her daily routine in order to calm her irritated skin and combat the mites that were the root cause of her ailment. Not only did these baths provide her with relief, but they also protected her from subsequent illnesses that could have made her situation even more severe.
