"This gorgeous fellow, Frankie, has the most severe ear infections my vet has ever seen. The inside of his ears looks like raw meat. His owners brought him to the shelter to be euthanized because they could not afford to treat his ears. His ears are so infected that they are bleeding and draining pus and he constantly hits his head again the brick wall in his kennel to try and stop the pain. I had the shelter take him to my vet. My vet originally did not think he could save his ears and suggested a total ear canal ablation on both ears. After flushing his ears under a general anesthesia, one ear can definitely be saved. Frankie is on prednisone, Zenoquin and tramadol but also needs laser treatments 3 times a week to try and decrease the swelling. After the laser treatments, he will need probably surgery on one ear. His owners allowed him to get in this terrible condition due to their neglect. I so want to make sure this fellow has a new life with kind and responsible adopters. If there is anyone who can help sponsor this poor baby, please call in a donation to Abadie Veterinary Hospital at 504 737 8910. Thank you"
