For this week’s check into the Puppy Mill Rescue Team Nursery, we check in on one pup who needs a little extra help from our supporters🙏 Baby Purple turns 6 weeks old today, but her journey has been a roller coaster ride to get here. Her very dedicated foster has been attentive to her needs and an increased respiratory rate was cause for alarm over the holiday weekend. Memorial Day picnics, extra time with family, many were celebrating… but rescue never sleeps! Baby Purple started to display signs of needing more help than we could provide, thus sending us to find an emergency vet to treat her. Her foster drove her out to Blue Pearl in Buffalo when Rochester emergency vets couldn’t help. The included invoice is for less than 24 hours of hospitalization (only about 8 hours to be exact!) so that she could be on oxygen and begin treatment for what appeared to be pneumonia. This tiny chunk needed help to get over the hump and if you know anything about young puppies, they can crash quickly. We are fortunate to have had a relationship with another local vet to transfer her to the next morning, and then a foster with oxygen available to transfer her to after further workup there. This is a hefty cost for our rescue for less than 24 hours of care. Baby Purple is now back to being fiesty and demanding attention.. good signs for a young pup! We are confident she will be ready to start looking for her forever home in the near future once fully recovered.
Her amazing foster donated $500 towards the costs of her care completely unprompted. (We love you Christina! 🥰) We’d love to match that with donations from our followers. If 100 people donated $5.00, we could have most of this bill covered! Please like, share, comment, donate if you can 💕 We cannot continue to help dogs in need without your support!
