Mr Dante's journey to recovery
Donation protected
I am a neglect rescue case from Stockton California. I have a severe skin disease, demodex +. When I am done with my treatments I can be adopted out to a forever home. Finding out what is wrong with me and the treatments will be the expensive part. Please help me.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi my name is Mr Dante. Dr's think I am 2 months old. I am an American Staffordshire Terrier/Chow Chow mix (DNA Tested). Full DNA report will be given to my adopted family as well as my complete health records. Here is my story from my POV.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I was found as a stray and I was sent to the City of Stockton Animal Services Center on March 31st 2017.
03/31/2017 My photo at Animal Control.
I am young and I am very sick. I needed to be out of the shelter by April 6th 2017. The shelter Dr tested my skin and I was positive for Demodex. He gave me Nexgard to start killing the mites.
04/09/2017 My freedom picture.
A lady named Lucy knew I needed out now. She had faith a rescue would step up to take care of me so she pulled me out of the shelter so I was safe. Miss Gabriel Foundation agreed to take on a sick puppy from the same shelter I was at. On April 9th 2017 MGF agreed to take me on as well, so Lucy drove me to Jacqueline’s house.
04/09/2017 I am safe at Jacqueline's.
04/13/2017 On my way too MGF to take me to see my Dr.
Thank you to the transporter Lucy for getting me to my first destination. Thank you to the transporters Marcia, Brenda, Amanda and Yvonne to get me to my second destination. It takes a village.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I am in need of ongoing medical attention so MGF will take me too my new Dr to develop a treatment plan.
At MGF they will foster me and give me the 24/7 medical care I will need. They have a motto and it is "Giving a second chance to dogs who never had a first chance." MGF needs your help to make this happen.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I saw my Dr on April 13th 2017. This was my first checkup visit to set up a medical plan. I have bacteria, fungus and yeast infections in my skin. My skin has sores that bleed and ooze pus. I am unstable since my body lacks muscles and am sore from the skin disease. My feet are swollen. Tapeworm was seen in my feces. I was sent home with some rx’s to help me. Due to my young age treatment options are limited.

I will get better but only under medical treatments. My Dr visits may be frequent, at first, due to my severe condition. Diagnosing can also be costly. I hope you can find it in your hearts and pocket books to please donate to my rehabilitation and recovery. 100% of these donations go into my care.
Donations are welcomed and are always needed for the veterinary/daily care of sick dogs like me. By your donations, the neglected cases get to come here into MGF for a second chance.
I did not want to get this sick. I wanted to be loved and cared for. My previous owners let me get this way. My medical bills will be ongoing during my treatments to get better. The hope is to not need a medical plan after I heal and repair. I want to live and I want to find my fur-ever family. It will take a village to help me. I need your help please.
