Help Jerry!
Jerry needs you!
Wellington
Kerry, who owns Regal Pet Salon in Ngaio, has had a terrible few weeks with her beloved dog, Jerry, being admitted to the vets and undergoing several tests to try to find out what is wrong. At the minute, the vets are unsure. He has just had a biopsy on his liver and kidneys which is being sent to the States to check for a potential autoimmune disease. Unfortunately they don't have insurance to cover the costs.
Kerry beautifully grooms so many dogs across Wellington and Jerry is always there to welcome our furry best friends and keep them company.
Vet costs so far are at $11,400 and only expected to rise as they await more scans, blood tests and the lab tests in America. Let's raise as much as possible to help Jerry, Kerry and her family and reduce the financial stress.

When will it get better for Jerry 13 August 2021
Every week we have to administor 14 immunosupressant drugs, 7 kidney drugs, 7 gallbladder drugs, 7 liver drugs, 3.5 anti nausea pills, 7 liters of fluids (14 injections). He has to go to the vet and have full blood panel tests every week.
The side effects of this is damaging my boy. His gut is taking a bashing. Today the specialist said the side effects Jerry is having is so so so rare but Jerry seems to be writing his own story.
He is defintely perking up and is looking good in himself but he is now weighing a shocking 14.8kgs. A week before he got sick he was weighed at the vets to be 18.3kgs. He is refusing to eat kidney food so now we hoping Tuna and chicken will do the trick.
Please continue thinking and sending positive vibes for our boy. He is a fighter and he will get through this.
