Please help Jerry the Jack russell puppy
Donation protected
Hey everyone, we are Janie and Lockie. Last friday 10th of June our good mate Simon McDonald brought his 14 week old Jack Russell over, who's name is Jerry. Jerry as most puppies are full of beans with loads of personality and confidence. Our other good friends brought their big beautiful dog round, but he is fully grown and no match for Jerry. Unfortunately the interaction was to much, resulting in Jerry getting picked up, coming of second best. Simon took Jerry home only to find a puncture wound in the bottom section of his stomach, Simon and his partner Tammy raced him straight to the vet where they found two more punctures. They were advised Jerry would need to stay over night and have surgery costing around $3,000 which quickly started to multiply due to the severity of three punctures to his abdominal wall, two of those puncturing his stomach and also caused a laceration to his liver, as we know these injures to a puppy are extremely traumatic. The operation was 5 hours, with Jerry coming out with a heart rate of 240bpm and low blood pressure from the stress and trauma he was under fighting hard to keep his little body alive. He is currently in ICU getting the best treatment by the amazing girls at Underwood. As Jerrys wounds were so extensive, he's had to stay in ICU since early friday night, the surgery and hospital care will cost close to $10,000. Simon has received further advice Jerry has a bacteria infection that will require further treatment, which means the vet bill will now exceed $10,000. Simon's Pet insurance is only covering $1800 leaving a pretty heavy amount to pay. We set this fund up on their behalf, they do not expect anything at all but as we all know any little amount of money would help them out immensely so they can bring there little boy home.
Jerry is doing well but not out of the woods yet, Simon and Tammy can not give up on him now.
Jerry is a fighter and has a second chance at life. For everyone who has taken the time to read this, thank you so much, please share this around so it reaches as many people as we can and hopefully we can come together, in anyway possible for little Jerry McDonald.
Every cent raised will go directly to the Veterinary bills.
