Vet bill fundraiser for Kaiser

Hi, my name is Lanie Wilson and I am fundraising for two dear friends of mine who have a 9 month old GSD, Kaiser, that required extensive medical treatment due to an unknown injury which resulted in an extremely severe infection that required surgery and intensive post-op care.

We believe that Kaiser may have gotten a splinter or something along those lines approximately two months ago. While we weren’t sure at the time, Kaiser had developed an abscess After a few days, the abscess seemed to have gone away; however, days later it returned and doubled in size. Due to this, Kaiser's humans took him to the vet on April 1st and had x-rays done, as well as a biopsy which required him to be sedated. During the time they were waiting on the biopsy results, there was a mention of concern for bone cancer from the x-rays. At that point the abcess ruptured which required a trip to MedVet in Pittsburgh where he had to have multiple procedures to clean up the wound. He was then sent home with a cone and half of his body bandaged. Once the biopsy resuts came back and there was no longer a concern for cancer, Kaiser returned to MedVet for surgery. This poor sweet boy had an infection so deep that they had to put two drain tubes in. They are having to keep him sedated so that he does not rip the drain tubes out. Currently, he is still in the care of MedVet as they cannot remove the drain tubes until he stops producing the fluid or he will end up back at MedVet with another possible infection.

As you can imagine, this has been quite the burden on his humans, they are worried about their baby boy but also incurring a massive vet bill as Kaiser will still require post-op treatment and possibly another surgery, if he does not stop producing fluid. If you can find it in your heart to donate any amount to help with the cost of his care, if would be greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate, we could also use all the love and prayers for this sweet boy. Please share!
