Dachshund Rescue South Florida hasn't added a story.
Imagine being afraid and alone in the shelter, and then the horror and pain of being attacked by another dog and being shaken and flung around so badly and having those injuries be so severe they break your spine and leave your abdomen bruised deep purple with deep puncture wounds.
Now imagine waiting in that condition, with limited medical care, with a broken back, and the wounds on your abdomen becoming infected to the point of being necrotic.
That is what Cayden has gone through while the shelter worked to get him rescue, and after watching him for 7 days, we could not take it one moment longer and placed our hold on him to free him from the shelter which happened late this evening.
Cayden was immediately transported to LeadER Specialty Hospital where he was started on IV fludids, antibiotics, and lots, and lots of pain meds to stabalize him through the night until another transport can get him South to Miami and Dr. Wong who is his best chance for recovery after sitting in the shelter for 7 days with no "deep pain" when the window for spinal surgery is normally 48 hours.
We were literally his only chance before he was euthanized or his entire system went septic due to the necrotic tissue sustained from the wounds for his attack.
No creature should have to survive even one minute of what this sweet soul has been through for 7 hellish days. We are his only chance, and the dogs that come after him's only chance. We need your help to cover his care so that we can make Cayden's dreams come true AND make sure the DRSF War Chest is ready to take on that next sweet soul that is right around the corner. Will you help us make BOTH their dreams come true?
As always, we welcome donations of any size, and if everyone whose heart is touched by Cayden's story gave only a few dollars, we could fund him in one evening....
YOU are DRSF and save lives every day....can you do the same for Cayden?
