Leo, May 2009 - September 23, 2009 Male Corgi
Mix

Leo is listed as being "adopted" because he went to the Rainbow Bridge last night to be adopted by God. He was a robust puppy who began having seizures shortly after his arrival. He was treated by several loving veterinans and doted on by our volunteers. He went to sleep peacefully in our arms. We learned that Leo had been exposed to distemper early in his life, but survived only to have resulting neurological problems which escalated quickly. It was clear that our heroic efforts were no match for his suffering and we needed to send him to a more peaceful place. Thank you to all the volunteers and to our wonderful vet, Betsy Johnson, who came out on a moment's notice to help Leo. His two remaining siblings, Annie and Bonnie will be on watch and hopefully can find loving homes or foster homes. They will be put on a preventative program with B vitamins, colostrum, and other holistic measures to build them up should any neurological damage ensue. If you would like to make a donation in Leo's memory, we will use the money for the additional testing and care of his siblings.
