Bullie Buddies of Las vegas hasn't added a story.
Ophelia is a 5 week old Italian Greyhound. She was given to me by
her breeder because she has severe megaesophagus, and her breeder
didn't have the time, energy, or resources to care for her properly
and knew she needed to go to someone experienced with managing a
severe ME dog in order to have a chance at a good quality of life.
At only 1 1/2 pounds, Ophelia's got a long road ahead of her.
Ophelia is currently overcoming aspiration pneumonia, and is going to
need intensive care for the next couple of weeks to get her stronger
and get the pneumonia under control. Antibiotic injections, meds to
help the food move through her system better, and feeding every couple
hours are just some of the many things we are doing to help Ophelia fight.
Despite the severity of her ME and her already battling
pneumonia at such a young and fragile age, this little girl has
SPUNK. She is a happy little girl who just loves playing with her new
mom and big sisters. She may be tiny but she is mighty!
Ophelia's surgery is estimated to run about $2000. In
preperation for her surgery, we have already ordered the appropriate
PEG tube to be placed by the surgeon, a spare just in case as things
can happen and it's always wise to have a spare immediately available
for use, as well as other supplies that will be needed to care for her
post surgery. I have also already spent over $1000 on vet bills and
other necissary care for her at this point. I will never give up on
little Lia and do anything I can to insure she gets whatever she
needs! But I could really use some help! With another severe ME dog
in my home that's had a some challenges the last month or so, my funds
are a bit tight. But this little girl deserves every possible
chance!
Anyone who would prefer to donate directly to the vet is also

Hospital, 801-278-0505, account is under Lydia Kunzler. You can also
