Help with Vet bill for Zeus Enmarch

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Daniel Enmarch and the proud owner of the best boy ever Zeus Enmarch, the Black GSD! Aged 7 he is known for his achievements in the mountains and great outdoors inspiring others through the forms of the images we take and share online.

Last Monday our lives changed forever and even more so for Zeus, he came close to not being with us anymore but after quick action and some top veterinary help we were able to diagnose and medicate Zeus.

Zeus has been diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, a rare disease that attacks the nerves and stops the muscles from being able to function! He lost all ability to move and hold his head up but with the correct dose of medication, he is able to walk and move around for little bits at a time in the hope that one day he came makes a full recovery. There is the hope of remission but the journey is long and doesn't come without its dangers. One of those dangers is Zeus also has something called Megaesophagus, which means he has trouble swallowing food and getting it into his stomach as the muscles don't function leaving the esophagus larger than normal. He now is at risk of getting aspiration pneumonia due to the body wanting to regurgitate food that isn't passed down to the stomach. For this, there is no cure or operation but means he has to sit in a bailey chair for 20/30 minutes after eating a meal or drinking, this helps him greatly but is a huge task for a dog his size as you can imagine!

Now we start the long process of setting up our lives so Zeus can be comfortable and hopefully on the road to remission and maybe one day a dog that can do the things he loved so much.

While we have insurance for Zeus it wasn't enough to cover the large bill that was to come with the tests that needed to be done to identify the problems he was facing. Anything you can do to help would be amazing and would mean the world to us as the journey isn't over yet with many more things to pay for and the special things he'll need in his life. This disease could be with Zeus for the rest of his life so any relief in finances can only help his recovery.

I hope we can see each other in the great outdoors one day and I can thank you for your kindness and snap a photo of you and Zeus doing what he does best. For now, I will be posting all of Zeus progress on our Instagram pages so you can keep up to date there.


Thank you.
