Terri Wood is organizing this fundraiser to benefit Arizona Pug Adoption and Rescue Network.

Luke is 11 weeks old. He came to rescue Monday (5/28) with breathing issues. As his breathing worsened, he was taken to the ER Vet (ARECA) and put in an Oxygen cage. The doctor's initial plan included full blood panel, chest x-rays, heart ultrasound, oxygen, de-wormer, antibiotics, and two nights in the critical care unit.

5/29: The x-rays showed the left side of his heart is enlarged, and there is inflammation in his lungs. The doctor can hear a quiet, continuous heart murmur. The heart ultrasound confirmed the left atrium of his heart is larger than it should be. He will need an echo-cardiogram, likely 5/31 or 6/1). The cost for two nights in the hospital and all of the testing so far is $2500. The cost of the echo-cardiogram will bring it up to almost $3000.

APARN believes every puppy deserves a chance, and we are asking for your help to pay for the cost of Luke's hospital bill. Luke may turn out to be a special needs pug - he likely has a congenital heart issue, but that shouldn't mean he can't have a good life and vet care!

Thank you for your help! #NoPugLeftBehind
