A middle Tennessee dog who has overcome unbelievable odds now may be in the fight for her life.

Channel 4 introduced people to Triumph the husky in 2005. Triumph was rescued from the side of a road in Turkey after both of her hind legs had been amputated.

She was brought to the U.S., adopted by a woman in Mount Juliet and then underwent a groundbreaking surgery to receive two implant legs.

Now Triumph has contracted MRSA in her legs, which is an antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Doctors are still running tests, and the tests and treatments to fight the bacteria are causing bills to pile up.
