He was found with multiple severe open wounds, requiring sedation and shaving to properly assess and treat themāhence his current lack of pants. šSam has a body condition score of just 2/9 and is suffering from German Shepherd pyoderma, believed to have been ongoing for months, possibly years.šø To see Samās photos and videos, click here:
https://airtable.com/appGcf8sE5aGNhjUI/shrBA2eLXtpWhTTV6The good news: treatment has started and Sam is already improving. ā¤ļø But healing from this level of disease will take time, and unfortunately, he does not have the time or environment he needs to fully recover within the limitations of a shelter.š¾ DOG FRIENDLY! Sam has done well with other dogs.We attempted a heartworm test but were unsuccessful due to his significant dehydration and difficulty obtaining a blood sample.Sam needs a rescue willing to continue his treatment, give his body time to heal, and show him what feeling good is supposed to feel like.ĀIF YOU CAN HELP ANY BY NETWORKING, SHARING, ETC. WE WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT! Thank you for everything that you do as our shelter partner!ĀĀ
