♡︎༺ Introducing Levi ༻♡︎
Levi was rescued from high kill Downey shelter yesterday in Los Angeles, CA. He is one of the bravest boys we have ever met. Levi came in to the shelter on Sunday, as a stray, terribly matted and with severe injuries. (Most likely hit by a car) He is only 1. 😢
Levi was sent for X-rays 3 days later. It was found he has a fractured ilium (pelvis) He was sent back to the shelter with limited painkillers. Levi was left there in an outdoor kennel, on a cold cement floor with no medical care for 3 more days. That is exactly where we found him Saturday morning. 💔 There was no question about what to do next. Levi was rescued by Red River and rushed straight to the emergency vet. It was found that Levi in fact, has 3 pelvic fractures, untreated open wounds to both his back legs, and trauma to his left testicle. We cannot even imagine the pain Levi was in or how scared he was, laying in that noisy kennel on a cold cement floor, injured, untreated, and all alone….and yet…he kept fighting.
Levi is safe, but needs the help of our entire sheepie community to rally around him to get the emergency surgery he needs so that he can have the beautiful life that he deserves…the second chance he’s fighting so hard to hold on for.
