Help our boy Balto get better

Donation protected
Our little boy Balto is 5 years old.  He has always been very active and the most loving and best dog you could ever ask for.  On Thursday October 3rd, Balto stopped eating and started throwing up.  He kept on throwing up more and more as the days went.  He started turning yellow on Sunday October 6th.  We immediately took him into the animal hospital where they had to do intensive research to figure out what was wrong with him.   While they figured everything out, our boy had to be put on IV fluids because he was so dehydrated and weak from not being able to eat and throwing up any water he drank.  We found out our boy has leptospirosis which is a rare bacteria that is transmitted from other animals from their urine.  If left untreated, this bacteria could have take Balto's life.  He has been in the animal hospital since Sunday as he was very close to  go into kidney failure.  He has a feeding tube as he is still too weak to eat.  Balto will probably have to be in the animal hospital for many more days as he until he starts to regain his strength and the infection is under control.  My husband and I have given him all we can give him; but as the days go his medical bills keep increasing.  All we ask is for any donation to help our boy.
