Help Monte

Hello Everyone,
Monte had his endoscopy yesterday afternoon, and I spoke with Dr. Seage (pronounced /sāj/) last night about the results. She had been hoping that the endoscopy would reveal a foreign object lodged in his esophagus that was causing the inflammation and his inability to keep food down, but upon performing the procedure, she didn't see anything and noted the inflammation wasn't as bad as she'd hoped it was. This is cause for concern because, without the obstruction or heightened inflammation, she is worried that Monte suffers from congenital Megaesophagus:

She wants to keep him at VERG for reevaluation today and tomorrow, but the likelihood of Monte making a full recovery is slim. They are feeding him upright and keeping him in that position for ten minutes afterward, and he seems to be able to keep the food down.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this, but Monte is going to be a special needs dog for the rest of his life and will require more nurturing, and care than the average pet owner is willing to provide. With help from friends and loved ones, I've been researching rescue facilities and trying to determine if there are places that can take him and look for a person willing to adopt the little guy.

If anyone on this thread knows of a place or a person willing to take care of him, please let me know, and we can discuss matters further.

Sincerely,
Luke Perrin
