Cane Needs Emergency Services After Rescue

CANE NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Poor Cane wants to enjoy his second chance at life, but instead he needs to go to the emergency vet!

Cane is receiving veterinary care at Animal Emergency Center at 395 Susquehana Trail, Watsontown, PA. Please see our first update for a copy of his bill.

Cane's Story: Cane's world was shattered when his owner abandoned him at the shelter and Cane lost the only home he had ever known. He didn't understand why - he got along with other dogs on walks and lived with a 5 year old child. At the shelter, Cane was downright terrified and terribly stressed out. He began to act out and quickly found himself on the At Risk for euthanasia list within a couple weeks - which is not long enough for some dogs to adjust, anyways! Statistically, dogs like Cane are the least likely to be adopted - a black pitbull mix with stress-behaviors stands almost no chance in an overcrowded city shelter. Thankfully, we were able to rescue Cane because fostering saves lives! Before leaving the shelter, Cane was neutered and just as he was settling in with his very own bed and very own toys, the stitches from his surgery became undone, causing concerning bleeding and risk of infection. Cane needs to get patched up while being a bit sedated too, due this being such a sensitive area.

In recent times, the cost of proper and urgent veterinary care has skyrocketed and all this is $1,389. Sadly, we already had 2 other urgent medical cases this month (also here on GoFundMe) and we really need to ask for help to give Cane his best chance in his new home. Please show Cane that he matters and donate!

Cane says, "Thank you for taking the time to care about a rescue dog like me!"
