Dachshund Rescue South Florida hasn't added a story.
Luther had a home and a family up until this last week, but with so many of the elderly and sick souls that make their way to our door, his home and family were in name only as at 16 years old, Luther was surrendered to the shelter with two other senior dogs with a list of illnesses bigger than he is.
When we pulled him from the shelter, he was taken immediately to LeadER Animal Emergency hospital as it was obvious he needed critial care.....Luther is suffering from Pneumonia, has an enlarged esophageous and is "ataxic" or wobbly in his back end. Any one of these conditions would have insured that he would not make it out of the shelter alive, but we could not let his story end like this and so we welcomed Luther as one of the first members of our DRSF Class of 2017.
In treating these complex medical cases, we go one symptom at a time, working from the most critical backwards and if we cannot get him over his pneumonia, there is nothing else that can be done for any of the other issues, so Luther will stay in ICU at LeadER getting around the clock care until he is stable enough to have the other conditions looked at.
President Pam visited with him earlier today (along with some McDonalds Cheeseburgers) and Luther has not given up yet, and so neither will we, but we need YOU to be able to keep up the fight and cover his care.
As always, we welcome your support in a donation of any size and even $5 gets us closer to our goal. Even if you are not able to donate, we still invite you to leave a message of love and support and to share Luther's story as you never know whose heart you will touch!
