Dachshund Rescue South Florida hasn't added a story.
This last week has been "medical mystery week" at DRSF as we worked our way through Montana's Poly Arthritis and now we have our 2nd installment of medical mystery with a whole new round of specialists to help her.
Nina was surrendered to DRSF after her family of 9 years no longer could keep her. Like Montana, she came to us with ehrlichia (which lends itself to the fact that she spent the better part of her life, if not all of it, outside) and also was not spayed, her teeth were horrible - all the calling cards of not the nicest life.
We set about doing what we do, dental and spay, all totally routine, and then just a few days after her spay, Nina developed a rash on her side. Ok, no big deal, and Nina did a course of Zenequin. When that didn't do the trick, we tried Clavamox next. Not only did Nina not get better, she got worse. Much worse.
An appointment was scheduled with Dr. Hnot at VCA Hollywood (who many will remember saved Frankie when he was diagnosed with phemphigus vulgaris in 2019) to see if we could figure out what was happening with her before she got any worse.
Dr. Hnot put Nina under anesthesia to take different biopsies from her right hip, right lateral thorax, and abdomen which were then sent for a histopathic/patholic evaulation.
Nina came home with some debrided sores, some new meds, and a cone of shame to keep her from fussing with the areas until we have a better idea of what is going on.
We are back again to ask your support to not just help us solve a medical mystery, but also to also give Nina the chance she deserves to have a life, home, and family who loves her and will never give her away.
Do we have it in us to work one more miracle? Even a few dollars will help us cover Nina's care and make sure our war chest is ready for the next little one we know is right around the corner....
