DJ is a 8 year old Mix-Breed in Geneva, OH, who needs $558 for Dental and Neuter Surgery.

If ever a dog deserved joy, it’s DJ. This sweet and sociable 8-year-old found himself at a shelter and in need of extensive medical care. When we learned of his needs, we stepped up and took him into our sanctuary program. While his list of ailments is both heartbreaking and long, DJ has a good chance of recovering and will live out his senior years surrounded by loving caretakers.

DJ came to us with heartworm. and a large intestinal and external parasite load which lead to malnutrition, infections and the death of most of the hair follicles on his back. Now treated and free of all parasites and infections and at his proper weight, DJ needs dental and neuter surgery as the next step in his healing journey. Madison Vet Hospital is providing ongoing care for DJ.

Clearly a beauty, large and black, like a black bear, with the most mesmerizing eyes, DJ has warmed up to his caretakers and the other canines here, knowing that he’s safe and he's turned into a wiggly, friendly soul. He has an eye condition that requires daily care but he's good about standing for his treatments. He also likes having his pills wrapped in pill pockets!

As a nonprofit rescue, we take in animals with medical needs and provide them with the highest quality, lifetime care possible. We rely on donations to pay for vet care. Can you spare a few dollars for DJ's surgery bill?
