Hello Everyone:
I am e mailing this to everyone on my list, so I apologize if this is something you don't usually get involved in, but I wanted this to get to as many people as possible. Please feel free to post it on any "pet networks" you might be affiliated with.
Attached is a file with pictures of "Luigi", an almost 3-month-old pit bull puppy who was hit by a car in Camden. "Luigi" has radial ulnar nerve inflammation on the front right leg. He is walking with his right foot buckled under, kind of like his foot is asleep and he just can't feel it at all. We're hoping that given cage rest and meds for a couple weeks he will have a full recovery. If not, he will require his leg to be amputated, but he will still be a healthy , happy dog. He actually does feel it when you squeeze his toes (That's a good sign.) . He is the sweetest boy! He is very well house trained, having no accidents at all so far. He gets along very well with my dogs. But, my husband comes home from his business trip tomorrow and I will have to board "Luigi" at a local animal hospital. He would do much better in a foster home or a permanent home.
"Luigi" is up-to-date on vaccinations and has had Bordatella too. He is on prednisone and Keflex and Tobramycin drops for his left eye (which they tell me was weepy when he was first found, but it looks perfect now). Again, he is just a "love bug" who likes to cuddle with either a person or another dog. Please pass this along to anyone you think might be interested. They can contact me at welshzoo@... or my office phone (856) 854-4628.
Thank you very much everyone.
