Puppy Dobby is a five-week-old Labrador puppy in Lewisville, IN, who needs $2,000 for treatment of possible Distemper.

Puppy Dobby is sick, hospitalized, and needs your help!

This sweet Labrador pup started to have neurological issues; he was having trouble walking and started shaking--- so did some of his littermates. Lucky Lab Rescue and Adoption raced the puppies to VCA Northwood Animal Hospital in Indiana.

Dobby and his sister Luna are the sickest. Their litter is named after characters from the Harry Potter book series.

"He is a very special puppy," Katherine M., president of Lucky Lab Rescue, tells Waggle. "Dobby came to us from a Mississippi shelter with his mom and littermates. We were unsure of what was happening to him, and he had to be admitted to the hospital and quarantined."

The puppies are being tested for Distemper. They are too young to be vaccinated against the virus and may have been exposed at the shelter. It breaks Katherine's heart because Dobby is so sweet. "He loves to be held and give puppy kisses," she says.

Having an entire litter of sick puppies is draining the rescue's bank account. But Lucky Lab knew they had to fight for these pups and economic euthanasia was not an option. "His vet bills were extensive but necessary to save his life," Katherine says. "It was horrible seeing his lethargic body sick and unable to be a normal puppy."

The rescue is hoping with the good care the puppies are getting, they'll be out of the hospital soon and, once they're healthy, adopted into loving homes.

With your help, the nonprofit group hopes they will raise the money to pay for Dobby's care.
