RIP HERO – Help HERO walk again

Hi Everyone, My sincere apologies for the delay in updating this fundraiser, sadly Hero died 2 weeks ago on Thursday 9th May after somehow picking up parvo, he died very quickly and its left us, his foster family absolutely devastated and heartbroken. Hero was vaccinated so we can only assume his immune system was very low and he succumbed to the awful disease.

He received a 2nd operation in April on his paw to try and help his badly damaged paw as it had a piece of bone coming through his pad and to help straighten it to enable him to walk more comfortably. He was just getting better from this sadly.

I cannot thank everyone enough for all your help and support in giving hero a chance of a better life. He was very much loved and we still miss him every day, 2 weeks on and Im still in tears thinking about our courageous boy and so saddened that he didn't go on to have his whole life before him, he received the very best care and love that we could give and I hope he knew that.

Any surplus money after his vet bills will go to help another dog in need of an operation, once again thank you all for your support of hero.

Monday 26.2.19 - First full physic session for our little man, he is growing tho and nothing is stopping him. He has had a check up at the vets and the pin has come out totally now and cage rest is still on the cards but he is allowed restricted time out. Try telling a puppy that tho, he's a very determined little boy who wants to get his own way. His next physic session will be in just over 3 weeks but plenty of exercises to be doing meanwhile to help strengthen his leg muscles. Once again thanks to everyone who contributed. x

Hero has left the vets today and is currently under cage arrest. He's eaten well and had a couple of cuddles and now resting. He has to stay in a small travel crate for the time being and will be back at the vets on Thursday for a check up. The vet bill (copy of receipt attached for transparency) came to €600, the balance of the fund raiser will go towards his future physio appointments to help him build his muscle back up. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated for Hero. x

Hero has had his operation today and is doing well. He needed to have a plate and a pin inserted to fix his leg and will be able to leave the vets on monday.

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated and sent best wishes for his recovery. Thank you for making this possible.
