BARF to the Rescue! Help Sick Puppy Hugo in Dire-Need!
Hugo is a 9-month old Anatolian Shepherd Mix who has been languishing at the Contra Costa Animal Shelter for almost two months...
during that entire time sweet Hugo has not been touched by human hands, or taken for a walk or allowed to play, until recently he has not even be seen by a specialist.
Hugo is a sweet, loving, kissey guy who acts like any typical happy puppy. He loves all people and dogs. In fact, Hugo doesn't seem to know anything is even wrong with him.
Doctors think a neurological problem is causing Hugo wobbliness and weakness in his back legs. He is severely emaciated as well. A medical condition like this will scare off most rescues. With potentially soaring coasts, (we are roughly estimating at least $4,000) no one really wants to touch a case like this.
Enter, Bay Area Rider's to the Rescue. Hearts for Paws Rescue was started by animal-loving BARFers and Hearts For Paws would like to save Hugo with the mission statement of rescuing the most dire-need cases in mind.
But we can only do it with your help.
First, we have to find out what is wrong with this guy. This is going to involve MRIs, X-Rays, Blood work, etc to even pinpoint what his condition is. Hugo seems to be stable without worsening effects. Maybe he will be able to live a happy full life in this stable condition. Hearts for Paws has found an amazing potential adopter, a war-veteran with PTSD who wants to heal with Hugo.
If Hugo's condition can be fixed, it will require additional funding and medical support.
If Hugo's condition will worsen, Hearts for Paws would like to pull Hugo as a hospice-case. We want to give this sweet Puppy a happy end-of life on the farm, to experience what it's like to just be a dog, out of a prison, to finish out his short time on Earth with happy memories and surrounded by people to love him.
So we are reaching out to you, BARFers, the most caring people we know, who time and time again have risen to action in the face of someone or something in need. What we need is a Christmas Miracle. Please help us pull this off.
Hugo's life matters too. Every little bit helps.
