About this campaign
What happened to Radar before The Sanctuary at NE Ohio Greyhound Rescue saved him is a mystery.
He was found as a stray -- emaciated and unsteady on his feet -- it was clear he was injured.
Had he run from his assailant or been hit by a car? He suffered in silence and unspeakable pain until animal control officers picked him up and brought him to a shelter.
Potential adopters overlooked him because of his black coat, injuries, and breed, part Pit Bull.
"Despite everything he has endured, Radar is sweet, loving, and trusting," Duane J., with the rescue group, tells Waggle.
The nonprofit group rushed Radar to their veterinarian, who discovered Radar weighs 15 pounds less than he should, has inflammatory bowel disease, intermittent bloody diarrhea, and heartworm.
Radar has an eye deformity that may need surgery, and his hind end is weak due to severe muscle wasting in his hips and back legs.
This dear dog needs X-rays to see what's causing his hip and leg issues and to check his heart before treating his heartworm.
"We specialize in the long-term care of animals with medical needs; we rely on donations to pay for vet care," Duane says. "Please don't overlook Radar as others have before!"
Please give to help Radar hone in on getting help!
