Petey showed up at someone’s house in rural Louisiana: skinny, cold, and holding his hurt paw up in the air. With dogs of her own, the homeowner couldn’t just let him in, but she set him up with heat lamps and a kennel and started searching for help. It wasn’t easy because he’s a large dog, and a pit mix. Two strikes against him.

We were lucky enough to find a fabulous foster home, had him transported in, and got him to the vet. X-rays show a bad break right at the joint, and blood tests revealed that he’s heartworm positive. The estimate for treating his issues as well as regular vetting has been quoted at $6000 with our rescue discount.

Please help us help him. Petey needs this surgery urgently, and we can’t have it done until we raise the funds.
