Butch - Needs HELP after Neglected past
Donation protected
Butch 10 years young- has been neglected over years and now needs a lot of expensive vetwork and medication
Butch was surrendered by his owners who didn't call him by his name - rather they called him "Dog"because they really didn't like him at all. Life was under the house, roaming the streets and sometimes being locked in a small front yard when people complained that he was 'out' again!
I was tagged many times on the Facebook post when Butch was out roaming the streets by some very worried residence, he had been seen out many times but he looked like he was looking worse this time. He is very friendly.
Butch went to his first vet visit today since 2014. His prognosis is not all bad -
He needs all of the following-
Entropion (Eye surgery - he is almost blind from neglect)
Desex
Extensive Skin Treatment
Removal of a cyst on his side
Complete Ear flushing - he cannot hear anything as they are completely blocked
Precious Paws Animal Rescue have offered to bring him into care thankfully which also means he will get the best of care and the vet costs are at least reduced somewhat.
It is estimated that he will need extensive vetwork and medication for at least 4 months maybe longer - I got an estimate today of $4532.00 as long as all surgery is done at the same time so could be more (This includes estimated meds that are required).
Once this boy has recovered it is anticipated he will find his perfect forever home to live out his days - he deserves this and more after the shocking life he has so far endured... but still he smiles!
