Help save our Ziggy shot with BB GUN

Our fur baby Ziggy is very sick and we need all the help we can to save him. He means the world to our family and his human brother and sisters. For a week now ziggy had a small sore on his side and we thought it was just a small hot spot or reaction from his collar. We took him to the vet on onset and they said just keep it clean and gave us a spray and cone to help it and it looks just like he is just scratching it. We gave him some antibiotics and was hoping that was it. He started bleeding from the nose nonstop. Today while checking him and giving him cuddles I noticed a perfect ball underneath his wound. I pushed on it very lightly and a BB PELLET fell out and hit the ground. I could not believe it! This whole time he had been shot and attacked by someone so heartless. After examining him super good we found another BB PELLET lodged in him. We have no idea why someone would do this or how anyone could have the heart to hurt such a sweet boy. We know that times right now are very trying for everyone especially here in Hawaii. We would never ever ask for help if it wasn’t drastic in saving his life. I hate that it has come to this and us begging for help with our baby. We were very reluctant to ask for help because we know that so many more people deserve help with go fund me than a dog. But hearing my babies weeping and wailing for their fur brother made my heart hurt so much and I have to at least try to do something. Please don’t feel obligated in any way to donate. A share and prayer for him to pull through means so much to us as well. We’ve had a few quotes from vets and they all are saying it is going to range anywhere from $5k and up. Already struggling to survive in Hawaii with 5 small children and me being a stay at home mom surviving on just one income is why we need all the help we can please. We pray for whoever is causing this harm to our dog and family to have the decency to realize how bad a pellet gun can hurt. It’s not just a toy. Thank you so much for reading this far. We appreciate every single one of you.

I will be filing a police report in the morning (9/25/23) when the kids go to school.
