CONTACT INFO AT END OF POST!
Friends
This is little Bogie. He' s had a
really hard life. First with a breeder.
Then when he wasn' t good enough for
that anymore, the breeder took him
to a high kill shelter. We were able to pull him with in days of him
being euthanized.
He lived most of his life in a cage in horrible conditions. We all know
what that does to an animal.
His back legs were very weak and he had a hard time standing up. When he
was finally able to, his little back was humped over and had bone spurs.
He had a horrible skin condition that caused loss of hair and a bad
smell. He also had what seemed to be an injury to his little pee pee.
I' m not surprised. His ears were
infected and he was very underweight.
Believe it or not, I was able to find wonderful foster parents for this
little guy.
I really thought his luck was about to change but unfortunately it
wasn' t meant to be.
All of a sudden, over night, his left eye started to look bad. He was
taken to an eye specialist which confirmed our worst fears. Little Bogie
had glaucoma. That is a VERY painful eye condition. The doctor said he
just knew he was in a lot of pain. But Bogie is a real trooper and tried
to hid his pain. He was given medication and was sent home with fingers
crossed. We hoped that it was caught in time but it wasn' t.
Bogie' s left eye had to be removed.
That was about 2 week ago. He did so well during surgery but was in so
much pain afterwards.
He just whimpered and moaned all night. But within a few days he was up
and playing.
Ok now we just knew his luck was about to change. He was going to be
pain free and he still had one good eye so we rejoiced in that. But
again, luck was not on his side.
Bogie woke up last Saturday morning with his good eye looking bad. He
was taken to another eye specialist this morning. He was diagnosised
with a detached retina. He is, at this moment, at the hospital awaiting
surgery. It' s scheduled at 4:00
today.
I know you' re saying.....here it
comes. Well, yes, I guess you' re
right.
I cannot pay for yet another surgery. I am just an independent rescuer
so I don' t have the financial means
like a lot of the bigger rescues
have.
The doctor said this one is going to be in
the range of $2000...give or take.
They wanted a 50% down payment before they would do the surgery. They
will not allow me to have an open bill nor would they work with me on
the price. I HAD to (HAD TO) pay $1000 my credit card today and will
have to pay the remaining balance tomorrow when he' s
picked up. I' m just
SICK and somewhat upset that this clinic will not work with me on this
payment. I was told it' s the only
clinic that can do this surgery. And
yes, I' ve checked around and it' s true. I don' t
have $100 in my account
much less $2000.
This little guy so deserves a chance to be happy, pain free and to be
able to see with the eye that he has left.
If you can find it in your hearts to help me help this little guy, I
would so appreciate it.
Time is not on our side but he' s
got to have that surgery one way or
another or he will lose this eye too.
There is no time for mailing checks into them. They want it now! So if
you want to donate, you can call your credit card into them. But here' s
another kicker...they require a signature so they' ll
have to fax you
some sort of credit card form to sign off on. Just like if you were at
the Mall charging something. You have to sign that paper. I know, can
they make it any harder for us to help this little guy. I' m
already on
the verge of tears.
He' s at LVS
(Louisville
Veterinary Specialty) 502-244-3036
Please....Anything at all will help him.
We all helped Nicki when she was in need and I' m
hoping we can all do
the same for little Bogie.
Thanks to everyone and please forward on to your contacts. We really
need all the help we can get.
REMEMBER...TIME IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE HERE
