Pup covered in mange for years

This is Nipsey Russel. We met him in the street while we were doing cat rescue work. He is a lovely gentleman, with a huge smile and a wagging tail and constantly scratching off his own skin-FOR YEARS!!. His entire body is covered in mange. The current owner got him two years ago and said he was treating it with a home remedy because he doesn't have money for a vet visit. This doggy is fixed- which means he was probably vaccinated at some point, but that's all we know. He is so handsome and loving even in all this discomfort so we begged our vet to help and IF WE CAN RAISE FUNDS-Nipsey can go to the doctor FRIDAY SEPT 30th-so he won't suffer any longer. . We need money for the visit, medication and because we are in NYC- transportation from Harlem to midtown. We are hoping our goal will cover the basics. We will do whatever we can for him with the funds available. Thank you. Let's make Nipsey's smile even bigger!!! Even before the pandemic, vet care was so expensive. Now it is even worse and the less fortunate have no access to basics. Thank you for helping us help this Harlem gentleman.

Here is a video of Nipsey singing along!
