Guaro, a very special case

By Juana Bolivar | Project Leader Assistant

Dear donor:

A few weeks before finding him there were already posts on Facebook, a puppy of about 5 months old abandoning in the park, struggling daily to get his food, evading mistreatment and indifference of the villagers. The night of August 11, a heartbreaking cry made us leave the house, when we realized the situation was a small puppy with his upper left paw completely shrunk, a car had hurt him and he was lying down trying to take shelter from the rain and the cold of that night under a tree.

We had to shelter him that night and the next day we took him urgently to the veterinarian, the proper tests were performed, his paw was immobilized and he was given his medications. He was given into a foster home where he could get better, a few days later, he got sick, we took him back to the emergency room and he tested positive for parvovirus, we could not hospitalize him at the clinic because there were more puppies.We gave him medical attention at home, the doctor checked him and medicated him twice a day. Guaro is a very special dog, with his eyes he thanks us daily for taking him off the streets and giving him the courage and love he deserved. He came out of his virus triumphant and continues to enjoy his life as a puppy with his friend Barbas.
