Harold was born into a local puppy mill that locks mother dogs into cramped cages,
and b.r ℮eds thousands of puppies for financial profit.
Due to overb.r ℮eding, puppy mill animals are at a high risk of developing serious congenital defects such as heart di.s ℮ase,
kidney di.s ℮ase, b.l σod disorders, deafness, and permanent paralysis, among others.
After taking a few newborn breaths, Harold was sold to an unsuspecting buyer for $7,000.
Harold’s new owner brought him home and nursed him through an initial upper respiratory infection.
Then, without warning, Harold suddenly lost the ability to use his back legs
due to curvature of the spine caused by excessive overb.r ℮eding at the puppy mill.
The condition is similar to scoliosis and eliminates all sensation in his hindquarters.
Overwhelmed, Harold’s new owner surrendered him to Dallas DoggRRR,
and we quickly transported Harold to the emergency animal hospital.
Harold spent two days in the hospital and struggled to eat without regurgitating.
Doctors performed emergency exploratory surgery on Harold and found ul.c ℮rations and a stricture in his intestines,
abdominal adhesions, swollen lymph nodes, elevated liver values, and fluid in his abdomen and esophagus.
This little guy has been a resident at Dallas DoggRRR for years and a social media ambassador.
He is truly a fighter, but we hate seeing him in such t.e ŕrible p.a ìn.
We are doing everything in our power to help poor Harold.
Our Harold is so sweet.
He is still trying every day,surrounded by great love.
