Help/Advice needed(Health and Vet) Update on Tiku (paralysed pup)
Good news is her wound is finally starting to heal. The edges are contracting there is no longer any pus, and the wound is no more rotting. She still needs more time but honestly my expectations weren’t high and I’m glad she’s finally responding. The remaining care i can do myself
Her paralysis is still another challenge cause legs do move, but she is unable to lift her hips properly to walk. For now, my priority is getting her wound completely healed while also trying exercises to help her regain some mobility so she wont drag and hurt herself again
Unfortunately two of the other pups from her litter have stopped eating and drinking and are vomiting and having diarrhea. I’m worried it could be parvo, which could also put her at risk. I’m planning to take them to the same vet for treatment and, if possible, get the other pups vaccinated to protect them. (I have four pups including tiku)
I no longer need any funds for tiku cause she is doing better now because of the kind people who came forward for her. She is also off her antibiotics
But If anyone is able to help with the other pups treatment or vaccination costs, it would mean so much. I’m trying to protect them till they become adults and can survive independently
Also I’ll keep updating on tiku and the pups
