Chip-In for
Virgil
I bet you'd
never think that getting hit by a car would
be considered a miracle. Well, for Virgil it
proved to be his lucky day. Someone saw this
poor boy lying by the side of the road and
took him to the Animal Shelter. They saw
that he was really injured including a
broken pelvis and shattered femur.
They
thought he was too injured and a strong
candidate for euthanasia, but as a last
resort called BTRNC. One of our volunteers
went to the shelter and took him to the vet
emergency room. He got all kind of tests,
blood tests, and x-rays there and was
determined he needed Pelvic and Femur
surgery. The x-ray also saw bones and stones
in his stomach that he had been eating as a
stray on the street. Unfortunately it was
Christmas and he would have to spend the
weekend at the emergency vet before he could
have surgery on Monday the 26th.
The vet
said that he could go on to be a happy,
loving dog after the surgery. As you can
imagine, four days spent at the emergency
vet plus surgery equals some big vet bills.
Any amount you could donate would be a
blessing to this boy. Keep up to date
on Virgil's progress at his Chip-In page:
