Hi Everyone, We don’t usually ask for donations & if you have donated recently please disregard this. We are in need of funds for Mr. Eko. This poor boy has been through so much & now has pneumonia. He is spending his days at the vet clinic that has oxygen & at night we take him to the Emergency Clinic, so this is costing a lot of money. He will be in the Emergency Clinic all week-end & they aren’t cheep. If you can afford even $5.00 we would appreciate it very much & so would Eko. He came to us on July 4 th with very bad skin & he was skin & bones. The vet thought he may have sarcoptic mange so he was dipped twice but on the second dip, he had a reaction to it & he also got an ear infection. After that he was neutered & swelled up to the size of a baseball. Then he had his heartworm treatment & did ok but when he got the microfilaria treatment on Monday he went down hill. He now has pneumonia & is very sick. His vet bill will be in the thousands but he is a very deserving boy. Very sweet & calm & is only a yr & a half old. If you can help we will be very grateful.

 

Update on Eko. Nov 15th. Eko is doing very well now thanks to East Dallas Veterinary Clinic & Lake Ray Hubbard Emergency Clinic. He spent his days at the vet clinic & his nights in the ER so that he could be in oxygen all the time. He had a reaction to his heartworm treatment rather than pneumonia. He is very lucky to be alive. His vet bills were a little over $3000.00. So far we have gotten about $1000.00 to help. We are still in need.

 

Update on Mr Eko. Nov 26 th. Eko had a set back last week & was back on oxygen. We are trying to wean him off of it & so far so good. He is back on his bronchial dilator & steroids, as well as antibiotics. It will be sometime before he will be able to be adopted. Hopefully by January.

 

UPDATE 1/27/07

Eko is doing good now. He got his heartworm preventative last week & did fine so I think he is ready for his forever home. If you are interested in Eko please fill out our application. He would do best in a home with a female dog that is not alpha or a smaller dog that is not alpha.

 

Thank you to all who have donated.
