Knick Knack Pittie Pack, Inc. hasn't added a story.
Becky was pulled from a high-kill SC shelter just two days before she was to be put to sleep... She is a middle-aged gal of 5-6 years old, body scarred with old wounds and her hair gone or missing patches from the Demodex mange that she arrived at the shelter with. She was also Heartworm positive.
Raising Aid for Dogs At Risk (RADAR) out of Lancaster, PA offered to sponsor Becky's Heartworm treatment for an approved rescue, which we are. We pulled sweet Becky and she underwent her first injection... she had a reaction so the second injection wasn't given the next day... instead, the vet waited for 30 days and gave the second injection. Becky was monitored and sent home to her foster's house the next day. She was then cleared for transport a month later.
Becky arrived in PA on Saturday, March 21st, after getting off transport in MD. She is fostering with my family and I'm really glad she is... after just three days, I noticed her breathing becoming labored and she started coughing... As President of the rescue, I decided to take Becky to the ER after a few hours of this behavoir. I'm glad I did...
Becky is having an allergic reaction to the dead & dying Heartworms in her system... Both of her lungs are enlarged and half of her heart. She spent hours in an oxygen chamber and had IV's in her front leg. Chest x-rays were taken and, though hard to see on a regular radiograph, some of the worms were still visible and the enlarged organs were obvious.
Becky is currently on strict bedrest and leash-walking for potty breaks. She is taking three medications and, after she pulls through this, her heart will be evaluated and a visit to the cardiologist may be in her future to check for possible congestive heart failure.
So, within the last 26 hours, Becky's vet bills, including meds, have totalled almost $1000. She has more meds to go and a follow-up visit. If she declines, another visit would most definitely be in order.
Becky has had a rough 5 years so far and deserves to be happy, healthy & have the life that she's always dreamed of... we want to be able to offer that to her but she first needs to get well. Please help Becky do that <3
