Fortune improving every day!

Little Fortune is doing better. He is still on his antibiotics and Prednisone for his Puppy Strangles. In addition, Fortune is being given a Glucosamine complex supplement to protect the development of his hip joints from the medication he is taking. It is believed that the Prednisone may interfere with normal skeletal growth in the hips. The Glucosamine supplement should help prevent this from happening. Fortune is also being given an antibiotic eye cream to ease the soreness and heal the open wounds. And if this isn’t enough, he was diagnosed with Tapeworm. Poor little guy! Not to worry though, Fortune is in good spirits and is improving every day. His face is clearing up and he has a lot more energy. Once all of these physical problems are resolved, Fortune will be neutered and get ready to find his forever family. Because he will be under our vet’s care for a while longer, Fortune appreciates any help you can offer. If you would like to support Fortune in his journey to get well, please consider making a small donation to the Shamrock Circle Fund.
