Ramber's Broken Jaw Won't Break His Spirit

Ramber has been through more than any dog should have to endure. This sweet dog was recently brought to the clinic with a serious injury to his lower jaw. Veterinarians discovered that Ramber's mandible is broken or may not have developed properly, making it difficult to determine the full extent of the damage without further diagnostic testing. In addition to his jaw injury, Ramber is suffering from widespread hair loss across his body, a condition that may be linked to an underlying medical issue.

Despite these challenges, Ramber has remained remarkably resilient. Throughout his examination, he was bright, alert, responsive, and eager to eat. His gentle spirit and determination to keep going have touched everyone involved in his care.

Before being admitted for treatment, Ramber received important preventative care, including screening for Canine Distemper, vaccination against Distemper, Hepatitis, and Leptospirosis (DHL), and treatment for external parasites. Now, veterinarians are working to uncover the cause of his medical conditions and develop the best treatment plan for his recovery.

To help Ramber, the veterinary team has recommended several diagnostic tests, including a Full Blood Count (FBC), thyroid testing, skin evaluations, and blood parasite screening. These tests will help determine what is causing his hair loss and guide decisions regarding treatment for his jaw injury.

Ramber's journey is just beginning. He may require ongoing medical treatment, medications, specialized care, and possibly additional procedures depending on the results of his diagnostic testing.

We wanted to share a positive update on sweet Ramber's recovery.

Because of his fractured jaw (mandibular fracture), Ramber is still unable to eat as much as a healthy dog. While his food intake remains lower than normal, we're encouraged to report that his appetite is good, and he continues to drink water well. His urination and bowel movements are also normal, which are all reassuring signs that he's staying stable.

Even better, Ramber's spirit hasn't been broken. He is calm, gentle, and active, and he's resting safely at the Baw Baw Animal Welfare sanctuary, where our team continues to monitor him closely and provide the specialized care he needs.

Thank you for standing beside Ramber during his healing journey. Your generosity has given him a safe place to recover, nutritious care, and the chance to heal with comfort and love. Every donation and every kind thought makes a difference as we help this sweet boy get stronger each day.
