A non profit rescue can raise funds much more easily than an individual (because donations are tax deductible) and without the personal tax consequences an individual might face. Also, an experienced rescue also will have better access to skilled veterinary providers, often at a reduced cost. And I can tell you, from the brief information you’ve given us, that the diagnostics in this case are likely to be extensive and very, very costly.
I’ve been in animal rescue for years, and just from your description, it sounds like this pup has some kind of brain disorder. But it could be infectious or congenital or cancerous or toxin-related or ….
I fostered one small dog with similar neurological symptoms. It was heart rending. And, unfortunately, she was emaciated by the time she was dumped at the shelter that she couldn’t withstand the diagnostics and eventually had to be euthanized. On necropsy, it was determined she had encephalitis, although the cause wasn’t determined. |
That is heart breaking.. I dont get how ppl can be so cruel.
Ive thouggt about a rescue as well but if she needs to travel for diagnostics or neurology, we r willing to get her help even without donations. She needs love and to feel comforted. I'm kinda wondering if she has cerebellar hyperplasia. But I haven't seen that seizures go with it unless if it's more along the lines of cerebllar abiotrophy?
Either way, she needs a neurologist for sure.
