10/27/15 Meet 4 paws 1 heart “Mocha”. He is a 6 month old Chihuahua that was surrendered to us yesterday. His penis was “stuck out” for several hours which can cut off the blood supply and cause permanent nerve damage. Mocha is also being treated for anemia due to the severe infestation of fleas. On top of all of this he might have an obstruction (could have eaten something that is not passing), plus his protein was dangerously low.
The awesome Veterinarian and staff at the Animal Urgent and Critical Care Center, have been successful with getting the swelling down so the penis stays in, his anemia and protein levels are back to normal because of fluids and IV medications, and he’s in good spirits tonight.
We won’t know for sure if we have to do exploratory surgery for a possible obstruction until tomorrow. Mocha will need a loving home to call his own if we can get him through this. Please pray for him and if you’d like to donate towards the medical for Mocha that can be done on our donation link. www.4paws1heart.org. Thank you!♡ Gina
