Saving Savana

Hello and thank you so much for reading! My husband and I rescued this cute little pup (Savana) over a week ago at this time. We are first time dog owners and we were so happy to complete our family, we never expected days later we/she would be fighting to save her life.

We adopted Savana from Day Before The Rainbow Rescue and literally 4 days later she became ill. We took her to the vet to find out that she has Parvo. (Parvovirus is a highly infectious disease that can be fatal. Many dogs who are diagnosed with Parvo will die) 

This sweet little girl that instantly captured our hearts is still in the hospital. She has been in the hospital now longer than we actually had her at our home. 

We did not anticipate this misfortune and the vet bill so far has become outrageous. We activated our pet insurance the day prior to taking her to the vet although this life threatening illness would not be covered immediately. 

On the bright side we are just happy that she is our puppy because she could have easily gone to another home that might not have taken her to the vet right away and who knows what could have happened. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read, either way. Donations of any denomination are greatly appreciated, and more importantly please share the knowledge of Parvo with anyone that may be looking to adopt.
