Miss Chloe's journey to recovery

Donation protected
I am a neglect rescue case, from San Joaquin County California. I have a severe skin disease. When I am done with my treatments I can be adopted out to a forever home. Finding out what is wrong with me and the treatments will be the expensive part. Please help me.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi my name is Miss Chloe. Dr's think I am 2 years old. I am an American Staffordshire Terrier (DNA Tested). Full DNA report will be given to my adopted family as well as my complete health records. Here is my story from my POV.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to a death of the family my owner lost her home and had nowhere to put me so I was left behind on the property. I was being used to breed my whole short life. My face and body have bite wounds on them from my mate. My 1 year old son and I started developing skin issues. We are getting sick. My mate and I were trying to start another family. I was sent to a boarding facility with my mate and my son. Due to my current condition the boarding facility got permission from my owner to surrender me and send me into a rescue on October 10th 2016. I need a rescue that specializes in skin conditions like mine.

Since I am in need of ongoing medical attention, a wonderful MGF follower (back in the days from when Miss Gabriel was alive) named Lisa just happened to be in the bay area and offered to transport me to Oregon.  I was transferred to the Miss Gabriel Foundation on October 12th 2016. 
10/12/2016 On my way to MGF.
10/12/2016 I should be heavier and more round for how pregnant I am.
10/13/2016 My skin hurts. It itches and bleeds.
10/16/2016 I am missing a lot of my back end fur.

At MGF they will foster me and give me the 24/7 medical care I will need. They have a motto and it is "Giving a second chance to dogs who never had a first chance." MGF needs your help to make this happen.
10/12/2016 I can finally relax.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I saw my Dr (Dr Liana) on October 13th 2016. She has a medical plan she believes will help me.

I am pregnant with 6+ puppies and Dr Liana believes I will deliver in 10-14 days according to my belly size and size of the puppies in the X-ray. My toe nails are long and they need to be cut. My skin has a severe disease where I lost some of my hair; I smell a little bad, my tail and back is covered in some scars and scabs. I have bite wounds on my face and body from my mate. All of these are very painful and uncomfortable. Unfortunately due to me being pregnant I cannot get treatment until my puppies are weaned.
10/13/2016 X-rays with my puppies.

I had some x-rays done, no vaccinations could be given in my current state, blood work ordered and tested for certain diseases. I am Lyme negative and Heartworm negative. I do not have Demodex. I need to be on a special diet high protein for me and my puppies.

I saw my Dr on October 15th 2016. I unexpectedly delivered my 7 puppies early in the morning and over half of them were stillborn due to my current state. Dr was concerned and needed to see me, my 3 living boys, my 2 deceased girls and my 2 deceased boys. 

An X-ray was ordered to be sure all puppies were born and I was placed on antibiotics to fight any infections in my body. My Dr also was able to bury my puppies for me after she examined them to try to understand what went wrong.

I was also able to get my rabies vaccination due to puppies being born and get a three month license for now with my new county.

Flynns one ear is already healed but the worse ear is still red and swollen but getting dried up. Medication is working. Dr listened to Ethan breathing and heard a little struggling so he ordered x-rays. This confirmed pneumonia, a very begging case of it. He was given an antibiotic to use and do x ray again in one week to check for improvement. Antibiotic chosen for Ethan is not safe for puppies and Dr would like him off it ASAP. Pick up some medications for the family.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I will get better but only under medical treatments. My Dr visits may be frequent, at first, due to my severe condition both for me and my puppies. Diagnosing can also be costly. I hope you can find it in your hearts and pocket books to please donate to my rehabilitation and recovery. 100% of these donations go into my care.

Donations are welcomed and are always needed for the veterinary/daily care of sick dogs like me. By your donations, the neglected cases get to come here into MGF for a second chance.

I did not want to get this sick. I wanted to be loved and cared for. My previous owners let me get this way. My medical bills will be ongoing during my treatments to get better. The hope is to not need a medical plan after I heal and repair. I want to live and I want to find my fur-ever family. It will take a village to help me. I need your help please.
