I wrote, in part, about Teddy & Tony the Galgo in here
All about Teddy:- he is a pure Mastin puppy, already a big puppy at approx 15/18 kilos, and was bought to guard his owner's home. When he went suddenly blind at just 8 weeks old, his owner planned to take him to the Perrera, where he would have been put to sleep.
When we met Teddy we could not allow this to happen without finding out if his eye problems were curable and to obtain a diagnosis. We didnt want him to be just written off. He was such a happy boy, and so acceptant of his condition.
Our vet consulted an eye specialist in Murcia and it was diagnosed as congenital Glaucoma. there are two types of congenital glaucoma and one doesnt respond to treatment. After 3 weeks of treatment we realised that Teddy has the poor prognosis.
He is such a lovely boy and we have all got to know him, he is funny, confident and full of character and deserves a chance. Sadly, he has to have his eyes removed but we want to try for him.
We need help with his treament and ongoing care.
We are also looking for the perfect home and family for Teddy.
Please contact adoptions@adoptaspanishdog.com if you are interested in adopting or fostering Teddy.
If you can donate to Teddy's treatment then please send to PayPal admin@actin-spain.com
At the moment Teddy's operation will cost 300 euros. His care and treatment so far has cost more than 200 euros.
If we raise more than we need, we will use funds for other dogs that we have taken in that need care.
For example Tony the Galgo who has a problem with his saliva glands, which must be removed and will cost 200 euros.
Please help us with Teddy and other dogs that we felt were worth a chance....
We have created Teddy's own Facebook page here so you can check his progress.
