Help Save Axel the Rescue Dog: Emergency Surgery Needed!

AXEL NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Rescue dogs can't catch a break! Poor Axl Rose has a terrible obstruction in his gastrointestinal tract and needs emergency obstruction removal surgery to save his life. Our initial estimate begins at $8,493.52 - $9,323.81. He will most likely need to have some of his intestine removed and be hospitalized for 3-4 days. PLEASE HELP! Axel is a strong boy and he so deserves this chance!

Axel is hospitalized at VERG Brooklyn Emergency Vet located at 196 4th Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217. If you prefer to make a direct donation, their telephone number is (718) five two two - nine four zero zero. Please see our first update for a copy of his bill.

Axel's story: Axel came to AmsterDog Rescue a couple of years ago when he was at an overcrowded city shelter (Animal Care Center of New York) and became at risk for euthanasia. Luckily, fostering saves lives and someone stepped up for Axel, but he has been waiting for his forever home since. In fact, it was so long ago, we are beginning to suspect everyone has forgotten about him :( He is a young dog at four years old and has so much zest & love for life! His handsome eyes sparkle as he looks at you adoringly, his fur is so soft and smooth when you pet him. Please consider making a donation to save Axel.

Every donation, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated. Even $5 shows this patient, loving good boy that he matters, too.

Thank you for caring about a pet in need!

AmsterDog Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit organization comprised entirely of volunteers that is dedicated to the plight of abandoned animals and those at-risk in public shelters. We currently have ~50 dogs in foster homes in the Northeast and regularly pull dogs under euthanasia commands from New York City's Animal Care Centers and elsewhere.
