About this campaign
*Safe Haven Rescue of MS*
A small chihuahua mix found himself trapped and somehow managed to pull himself free.
But, with that came some horrific injuries. One rear leg torn and the other leg left damaged.
He was picked up & sent to a high kill shelter. Pleas for help came before his hour of euthanasia.
We decided he needed life saving measures and a chance to survive
Naming him Turbo, he went to our rescue vet.
Turbo is under the care of Dr Howell at Animal Medical Center, where he has been kept on antibiotics for his injuries. He also had to undergo a small procedure to remove the one rear foot as it was severely damaged. Both rear legs, now wrapped as nubs, are proving to be a challenge for Turbo. He continues to self-mutilate, so major surgery is required next.
Turbo is new into our rescue, however he has shown both gratitude and love, despite his pain.
He is a favorite at the vet office, and loves to be shown affection.
Turbo is young; resilient, and loving, despite the horrors he has endured
Turbo's emergency care, medications, & upcoming surgery for a double amputation is extremely costly. Especially for a small rescue, such as ours.
We are dedicated to help the injured, and do all we can to provide the necessary care to give them a 2nd chance.
