We are looking to cover costs for Barneys treatment. All basic avenues have been explored and are now trying to fund lab costs.

Marlborough

Barney is suffering with mites. The basic steroids, antibiotics, cream and ointment have been prescribed but we seem to have exhausted these.

The next step is for skin scrape and blood tests to determine the strain of mites that are attacking his immune system so we can get on the road to recovery.

He is one very unhappy boy as he is constantly itchy and licks and bites himself. Therefore he has bald spots on his body , head and legs

Use of funds

Donations will be used solely to cover lab costs and treatment. Any surplus exceeding the target will be passed on to the vet

So, Barney has lupus which is a systemic autoimmune disease that occurs when the body's immune system attacks the tissues and organs. Can affect joints, skin, kidneys n blood cells.

Thanks to you guys we now have proper diagnosis .

His medication continues so it weakens the body's defense /immune system, so the lupus cannot attack it.

We now have to cover "vets time" as she has done all this with no payment to herself being the wonderful human being she is💕💕💕💕💕
