Dixie Dachshund Rescue

Mr. Henry was found as a stray, emaciated, covered with fleas and infected with ringworm.  He was very fearful of people but with the love of his foster family he is slowly learning to trust that he will not always be abandoned and neglected.  Mr. Henry has a loving and loyal personality. He shows his love by giving lots of kisses and sitting as close to his loved ones as possible.  While Mr. Henry was roaming the streets alone, we thought he might have eaten something that was very hard on his liver for his liver enzymes were quite elevated when he was first taken to the veterinarian.  Although he is now on a special diet and is receiving daily medication to support his liver function his enzymes are still high.  Since an ultrasound did not find any abnormalities within the liver itself, he will need additional testing to try to find the cause of this problem.  Mr. Henry is a beautiful, sweet and loving dog and any help that you could offer to help with these extra medical expenses would be greatly appreciated.  His medical expenses are climbing - but we WILL get Mr. Henry whatever he needs as long as he is our foster dog so any help is welcome.  Just click on the "donate" button at the top of this page to help Mr. Henry. 

Meet Hank, our newest "health issue" baby.  He was dumped at the Montgomery Humane Shelter and was heartworm positive as well as SCARED TO DEATH!  It was so sad to see the fear in his eyes; and to know that he would also have to go thru heartworm treatment.  AND his testicles had never descended, so that was a bit of major surgery for this little angel.  He is still timid of new people, but he LOVES his foster mommy - learning to like his foster daddy too!  Any donations you can make to help offset some of Hank's heartworm treatment would be greatly appreciated.  DDR thanks you - but most of all - Hank thanks you!
