Scruffy

  • PLEASE HELP with Scruff's medical care.

    Scruffy was found digging in a trash can at a carwash, looking for some food. His skin looked like it had been set on fire; he didn't even look like a dog! He was missing most of his hair and the little he did have, was matted.   Unfortunately, he ran when we approached, and was hit by a car. Looking at him more closely, we saw one of his toenails was completely ripped out and he was (of course) full of worms, fleas, ear mites, and covered in dirt and blood. He was also very afraid of people! St. Francis's vet says he has a thyroid problem which may require meds for the rest of his life. He's using 3 different medications right now and needs to go back to the vet soon to get his shots (and hopefully neutered).

    Update on Scruffy:    
    Scruffy has a forever home with his rescuers and foster family. As you can see from his pictures, with quality vet care, he has made a huge recovery. He is learning to be a member of his pack, play, and trust again. PLEASE HELP  with Scruff's medical care costs or other's like him who need extensive rehabilitation.
