UPDATE ON LEVI
We have been to Vereeniging Animal Hospital he has abscesses in both his a**l sacs and the fungal skin infection is flaring up again (his hair has completely fallen out up to his elbows and the nail beds are oozing pus) possibly due to an over active immune system as he previously responded positively to the cortisone. He has been given medication and we are to return after 10 days so that Dr Engelbrecht can have a look and we can decide on the way forward. Thank you for all the love and well wishes. We really do appreciate it. We will keep you updated on developments.
We previously asked for assistance for this little man. He was diagnosed with a severe fungal skin infection and were advised to do a dental at a later stage when he is better. He received treatment of antibiotics, anti fungal medication and cortisone. The treatment started working but has finished the course of medication and is still battling. He is now urinating dark gold coloured urine which indicates something more serious and appears to have an internal infection in his re**um a**l area (possibly a**l sac disease) the Vereeniging Animal Hospital cannot provide a quotation before seeing him this afternoon to determine what needs to be done. It is a very painful condition.
Humans have failed this little guy and we would really like to give him a fighting change. It is most probably treatable but we just don't have the funds to cover surgery should the vet have to wash out the a**l sacs under anesthesia or remove the a**l sacs.
We will never prolong an animal's suffering and if recommended by the vet to send him to doggy heaven we will.
Please if you can contribute R10.00 towards his recovery it will most definitely help. Remember we can issue a Section 18 certificate to submit to SARS when doing you submit your annual return. Businesses can also benefit by making a donation and submitting the Section 18 to SARS.
If you do make a contribution please put us an email [email protected] with your contact details so we can thank you and provide the certificate for tax purposes.
