Dachshund Rescue South Florida hasn't added a story.
There are occasionally rescues that happen and we don't even
have time to stop and think if we will have the funds to provide the
care the dog needs, we just act and hope that our community will be
there for us once again.
Hickory is one of those cases. The email from the rescue office
came in, a male 8 pound stray dachshund had been badly bitten by a
bigger dog and needed immediate rescue. For about the millionth
time, Laura got to the shelter within minutes to rush this tiny
little broken body to LeadER Animal Speicalty Hospital.
We knew the little boy was severely injured, but didn't know the
full extent. Once at the clinic, his injuries were assessed and all
we can do is hope that we got to him in time. Hickory has been
placed on fluids, IV pain meds and antibiotics. There is no doubt
that surgery has to happen sooner rather then later. The bite wounds
to his abdomen are many and deep. The most concerning thing to Dr.
Unis is that he is pretty confident that Hickory's colon is damaged
and if that is the case and fecal matter leaks into his abdomen,
Hickory can quickly get a massive systemic infection that will be
difficult to fight. There are other injuries also, a tear to his
abdominal wall where his small intestines are able to push through
and wounds that will need repair.
Dr. Unis is prepping for surgery and we are asking, yet again,
for your help to provide the surgery and care Hickory needs....will
you help us help him?
As always, we welcome your support in a donation of any size and even if you are not able to donate, we still invite you to share Hickory's story and leave a message of support!!!
