Arthur

Picture
Arthur AKA Big Sexy was surrendered to a local shelter. The surrendering person claimed he found him as a stray and couldn't care for him. Arthur is estimated to be around 9 years old. He needs a dental cleaning, cherry eye correction, and he needs to be neutered. His ears and tail pocket are also very infected. 

Good news, he is heart worm negative! But he is positive for chronic exposure to tick born disease. His lab work also showed several concerning elevations. We will repeat labs in a couple weeks and hopefully having a good high quality diet will help get his labs back on track. And then we can proceed with surgery. 

Until then, enjoy some photos of the big sexy beast...

Hangin out in foster care....


Arthur update: 

First set of labs we ran looked pretty concerning, specifically his liver. But after a month we ran them again and they looked great! It's amazing what good food and proper care can do! 
After Arthur threw up a corncob that had been in his gut for awhile, we did x-rays to ensure nothing else was in there. No other foreign objects were seen on the x-rays but he seemed to be pretty backed up and his lungs looked "off". So we waited about a month and redid x-rays. He's still pretty full of it , but his lungs looked better. Older bulldogs can often have some inflammation of the airways, so we started some meds to bring down inflammation before surgery. Hopefully by next week he will be neutered, have his cherry eye fixed, some new sparkly teeth, and be ready for adoption!!! 

This guy is a total LOVE ! 
He will need on going tail pocket care. But other than that, he's perfection. 
He loves to be by your side. He's a great cuddler. He doesn't beg or bark a lot. He gets along with cats and dogs.
