Handsome Hale young boy just rescued from Nash County High Kill Shelter on 9/10/13 in North Carolina is now safe. in Nj .He was vetted in NC. But his pledges were not enough to cover the vet bill for his neuter n shots plus he is in need to visit the vet again in 2 weeks. He has Ehrlichiosis. He is taking antibiotics for this bacterial tick disease but needs to remain on them for a longer period of time and needs a revisit to the vet asap..
A bacteria transmitted by saliva from the bite of a brown dog tick, ehrlichiosis is seen mostly in America's Southern states. Since dogs don't always react instantly, an owner might not notice when symptoms appear months later. Signs include lethargy, weight loss and decreased appetite, with arthritis in severe cases. German shepherds are affected more than other breeds. A potential cause of anemia, the condition is diagnosed with blood tests. Treatment includes antibiotics over a long period, but it doesn't eliminate the problem completely and symptoms can recur. Some dogs might require blood transfusions.

Poor Hale has no idea he is sick .. he is so sweet n friendly n active so he may have just the beginning of this disease and I would like to keep it that way and pray it does not return. Not sure what donations are needed but please donate what you can, i know bloodwork alone is 95.00 plus visit fee n more meds etc Hale is just a pup n full of life was due to die 9/10/13 please help keep him healthy n happy to live a long life .Thank you so much for reading this n please share . Please Donate Now for a Happy Healthy Hale :) .
I put 350.00 it maybe less maybe more .
