Twilight star Ashley Greene has been left devastated after her pet pooch was attacked by another dog and left with serious injuries.
The actress rushed little Marlo to a veterinary practice after the fox terrier was hurt and she appealed to fans to pray for the dog.
In a post on her Twitter.com page, Greene writes, "Everyone please please please pray for Marlo. A dog attacked her. She's in the hospital."
The star, who plays vampire Alice Cullen in the blood-sucking franchise, later thanked fans and reassured them Marlo was on the mend, revealing she will be able to take the terrier home on Wednesday (09Mar11).
She adds, "Marlo is now stable. No damaged organs. She just may need surgery for damaged muscle. You guys are so amazing for the thoughts and prayer... I am SO excited to come home and pick up Marlo from the dr (doctor) tomorrow! I hope it's sunny."
It's the second time Greene has suffered a pet scare this year (11) - she reached out to fans in January (11) after a bulldog belonging to her boyfriend, Joe Jonas, became sick and needed an urgent operation.
