Bastrop Animal Rescue, Inc. hasn't added a story.
Lily (formerly Lucy) entered the Bastrop County Animal Shelter on
August 20th as a stray with a severe injury to one of her back legs.
Bastrop Animal Rescue immediately rushed her to the Bastrop Veterinary
Hospital where the doctors discovered that she had a fracture to the
bones in her right hip. This fracture would require a surgical FHO
repair (FHO = Femoral Head Ostectomy).
Lily has since received this surgery and she is doing great on
her road to recovery, but now she needs to be treated for her
heartworms. Lily tested high heartworm positive and she will need to
receive the "full-kill" treatment to rid her body of the
worms. Heartworms are parasitic worms that live in the heart and
pulmonary arteries of an infected animal. The worms travel through the
bloodstream—harming arteries and vital organs as they go. Several
hundred worms can live in one dog for five to seven years. Heartworm
disease is serious and can cause animals to die a slow painful death,
if left untreated
The estimated cost for the pre-treatment blood work and chest
x-rays, the two injection treatment, and the post-treatment care is
$525. Your generous donations will enable us to treat Lily for
heartworms and begin the search for her loving forever home. Any
donation, big or small, is greatly appreciated!
