Dachshund Rescue South Florida hasn't added a story.
Bobby's road has not been an easy one....he came to us from Ashes to Glory in Puerto Rico, only a couple years old, with IVDD. He had no chance in PR, so we agreed to bring him here, to see if he could be a surgican candidate, so he came to the US with 21 other dogs in search of care and a family.
We were saddened when we learned that Bobby was not a surgical candidate as he had been down for too long, but we got him a set of Eddie's Wheels and loved him just as he was.
At first the issue started out small...Bobby was chewing on his foot. His Foster Mom would catch it, apply antibiotics and wrap it up. But he continued to do it, each time more severe and we knew we were dealing with another horrible side effect of IVDD which is nerve pain.
Bobby's "eating" of his foot to try and stop the pain contineued, getting worse each time, until this last time he literally ate the majority of his foot, bones and all. We knew that this was no way for him to live, so we had two options - put him down, or take a gamble, amputate his leg, and hope and pray if we took the whole leg that it was taken "above" wherever the nerve was that was causing the issue.
We hope that you would feel the same and would have given him the chance, as Bobby has had his surgery and we are hopful this difficult decision and another challenge for him, will work and help him to live pain free.
We are back again to ask your support for his care. As always, every dollar counts toward Bobby's "Funding Finish Line" and even if you are not able to donate, we still invite you to share his story or leave a message of love and support!
