Saving a Special Dog

  • Where we’re at...

      4 December 2019

    Hi everyone, it's been a busy time here and in Sicily so I apologise for the delayed update. Nobile continues to win hearts, both canine and human, with his gentle nature and soulful eyes. He is always being looked over by Daniela's dogs and she reports he is very popular with the ladies ❤ Poor Nobile, he's had a tough time the last couple of weeks medically yet he has accepted treatment gracefully and continues to wag his tail at Daniela despite everything. His spirit on the other hand is thriving, and we are seeing him let go of his past and open up to those around him now he is safe. So where is the money going?...last week Nobile had an ultrasound, bloodtransfusion and a host of tests and medication to support things like generation of red blood cells. We weren't expecting to have to put him through quite this much, but he is responding well, even though it's invasive for him and costly for us so we are DEEPLY grateful to have your support.

    For those who have been through medical issues with your dogs, you will know how expensive it is, so I will be doing my very best to continue to raise more money, so we can continue to care for Nobile like he is our own family member. Because Gabriella and I were lucky enough to have Daniela, a vet nurse, agree to board Nobile with her, he is also receiving donations of other medications from her and from her clinic. So you see everyone is doing, and wants to do, their very best for this very special dog. Thank you ❤️

  • Lab results

      26 November 2019

    Hi everyone! Sorry for the late update. The weather in Sicily has been bad and our lovely rescue partners have been flat out working hard and keeping the dogs occupied and dry. We are just waiting for lab results to come back of Nobile's kidney check and paws crossed he is ready to start chemo for the leishmaniasis. I will update you as soon as I get them.

    This is only possible because of your support and Gabriella and I are deeply grateful!! Thank you!!
