Hi everyone. My name is Dillon and I've just been rescued by ERU. I'm currently in foster care and I really like my new foster mom and her cat!
When I was rescued, my former family told ERU that they thought I had been hit by a car a couple of weeks ago because I suddenly started limping. Well, I was never taken to the vet so I've just been limping around trying to keep any weight and movement off my leg that hurts so much! The people that rescued me took me to their home and gave me a bath (cause I was all sticky) and then took me to the vet. I've never seen a vet before, but it wasn't too bad! They did some tests and X-rays and found out that my right hip is dislocated. I knew it hurt a lot! So I need to raise some money so I have have surgery to fix my painful hip! Until we figure this whole thing out, I'll just keep limping along...at least the vet gave me some medicine for the pain. Hopefully that will make it feel better until I can get it fixed! I'm the sweetest boy and get along with everyone! Want to hear something funny...my brother is here at ERU just recently! He was rescued a couple of weeks ago and he's looking for a new home too! His name is Sammy so you can go see him...we look kind of alike, don't ya think?? If you would like to help me raise money for my surgery, you can donate directly to ERU...100% of the funds you donate can be used for my care. What a deal! Just make sure you let them know you are trying to help me out. Thank you for your help and come back soon to see how I'm doing in my new foster home!
