Attention Manitoba Mutts friends, family, and community! We have an #Emergency #SuperTrooper! Pumpkin has been having bouts of diarrhea and went in last week for Parvo testing, but it returned negative. However, last night the episodes were so bad that her foster mom brought her back to our friends at Southglen Veterinary Hospital who were able to diagnose her with rectal prolapse and began immediate surgery. While in surgery they noticed intussusception and necrotic tissue in her intestines, since it was so late and SG was about to close for the night, Pumpkin was immediately transferred to Bridgwater Veterinary Hospital and Wellness Centre to complete the emergency surgery. They also found that her small intestine was stuck in her colon so they fixed this and removed part of her intestine due to the necrotic tissue. The surgery ended at 5 am this morning, and if she makes it through the next 24 hours without an infection she should make a full recovery. Her vet bills are estimated at $3200 Funds raised: $2285 Thank you The Dishcloth Damsel and Peppertree Fashions Wpg for the $1230 donation towards Pumpkins care!

Update: Doris is doing well! She's at home with her Foster family and as happy as can be! Update: Doris went in for surgery today! Fingers crossed. We wish nothing but the best for her and her foster family. Update: Doris was sent home due to the fact that she was too anemic to have surgery. Will try again in two weeks after a diet change to boost her levels. #SuperTrooper, Doris, was discovered living outside of a school in a Northern community for months, looking very thin and malnourished. When she was brought in to the care of Manitoba Mutts it was discovered that her hip was completely dislocated and it was difficult to get it back in to place. This 3 year old beauty, Doris, has been taken to Bridgwater Veterinary Hospital and Wellness Centre for Femoral Head Osteotomy surgery. We wish her luck and hope for a speedy recovery but need your assistance in the meantime. Her vet bills are estimated to be at $2300 Currently raised funds: $425 If you'd like to help out Doris please go to https://manitobamutts.org/how-to-help/donate/ and leave a note with Doris's name so that your generosity goes directly to her care
Attention Mutts Community! We have an #Emergency #SuperTrooper! This tiny, albeit grumpy looking pup, is Tammy. She was discovered in a Northern community and brought in to the care of MMDR despite weather conditions making it difficult for her to reach her foster family. After a few days of getting settled in to her foster home, her foster family noticed she was behaving oddly, was losing weight and was having very runny bowel movements. She was taken in to Fort Garry Veterinary Hospital on Wednesday. Bloodwork showed very high levels of infection, but they were not able to determine with absolute confidence where in her body, and she was extremely dehydrated. She has been hospitalized and is now staying at Fort Garry Vet until we get things under control. Her vet bills include: bloodwork, hospitalization, IV fluids, antibiotics & distemper test. We are wishing her the best of luck and will update on her health once we can. Estimated vet bills: $950 Amount raised: $50 If you'd like to help Tammy please go to https://manitobamutts.org/how-to-help/donate/ and include a note with Tammy's name so that your generosity goes directly to her care.
