UPDATE 17/08/2017
Thank you for your kindness, dear friends!The funds for the treatment and tests of Mancho, Haska and Rocky have been raised. Now we hope they will also be lucky and recover in the best way!
We will introduce you to the rest of our patients on hospital treatment tomorrow.
Dear friends,
we are hardly managing the treatments of all the dogs that were brought here for urgent treatment. Could you help out, even by little?
These are all patients that cannot wait, and we have literally used up all our possible resources and there is a risk that we will not be able to finish their treatments…
Rocky – abandoned
Rocky is a 3 y.o. Labrador. He was abandoned by his so-called “owners”, but they are not worthy of this title. They just had a baby, cannot look after him – you know how this song goes. Only Rocky has not been neglected recently or 9 months ago. He is a dog no one ever loved.
When they brought him, Rocky smelled of death. A quick inspection showed he has necrosis in the tail region, there were white worms falling out from the holes of the infection. It took us 3 hours only to remove the larvae from his skin.
Rocky doesn’t know how to communicate with people. He doesn’t know how to walk on a lead and finds human touch hard to bear. He needs many tests to figure out how far the necrosis has spread and if an amputation is necessary.
To be able to continue Rocky’s treatment we need 280 BGN.
Please, help him if you can, even by very little. He deserves kindness from people after all this suffering.
Haska-Gaska – ill with heartworm
A small-sized abandoned little lady came round the shelter in the beginning of this year. “Our” strays chased her initially, but then she became part of the group. A little by little the keepers managed to win her trust, until we could finally catch her to make some blood tests and see what’s going on with her.
Sadly, Haska turned out to be infected with heartworm. You already know this disease – it runs quietly until the parasites grow so big that the heart bursts open, killing the dog. She is such a young girl, at the start of her life and finally beginning to trust people.
The only treatment for heart-worm is long and expensive. To save Haska’s life we need a special drug – immiticide, which we cannot purchase without your help.
The money needed for the treatment of Haska total at 430BGN.
Without it – she has no chance.
Mancho – with pyoderma
It has been 6 months now since Mancho began the battle with pyoderma. We have failed to cure him from bacteria that is eating him alive. The boy simply has no immunity – whatever gets a hold of him, makes him sick.
After several unsuccessful treatments, the doctors want to have Mancho tested for specific problems, and also give him immune-stimulating drugs. The whole amount that he needs to stand a chance in this battle he is losing is 340BGN.
Would you support a poor, naked Mancho? He is still a baby, but his whole life was spent in the clinic, waiting for a cure…
Could you help?
With so many patients – we simply cannot find the means for the more expensive treatments of the three tortured heroes. And they have been through so much already, they deserve to know a man is a dogs best friend.
Please, make a donation if you can, however small it may be. There are many of us, and if we get together again – we will rescue these souls as well…
