SCOOTERS PORTRAIT FOR A PAW FUNDRAISER!!!
A HANDPAINTED PORTRAIT OF ANY FURKID YOU CHOOSE!!!
PLEASE MEET SCOOTER!!!
He was recently surrendered to rescue by this family due to economic hardship. Upon entering rescue it was discovered he was limping on his left front leg. HHBR Immediately had him looked over by a veterinarian and it was believed he had a known condition common to Basset Hounds called Panosteitis, a a painful bone disease they can get while growing. Scooter made his way from Central KS/MO to IA on a transport and into the heart of his new foster mom Molly. He did wonderfully the first week and a half and acted like a normal healthy happy VERY energetic puppy. One day Molly noticed him limping and by the next morning he as no longer baring any weight on the leg. She took him immediately to the veterinarian and it was discovered by X-rays he had a small fracture in him left front leg’s elbow joint. Due to the location and if Scoooter would need a corrective surgery we then consulted our wonderful orthopedic vet Dr Brent Reimer here in Des Moines, IA. After another x-ray and some palpation of the limbs Scooter has been diagnosed with a Ununited Anconeal Process or UAP in his front left elbow. But to our surprise he also has a issue with his front right elbow as well called a Fragmented Coronoid Process of FCP. The only way to fix these issues and for Scooter to live a long pain free life in what ever forever home he finds he will need to under go orthopedic surgery on both legs.
Hounds Haven is committed to making sure these surgeries happen for Scooter but we need your help....the costs of both elbows being fixed during one procedure is going to be $1200-$1400 and this total has been discounted by 50% by the wonderful staff at IVS.
