Funyun and Frito are true fighters. These tough little guys beat parvo and are recuperating in their foster homes. They're still gaining their strength back, and have a ways to go before they're fully healthy, but they have made great strides!
Poor Funyun and Frito. They came on Saturday from a rural shelter in Virginia to begin their new chapter in life. But soon after they arrived we noticed Funyun (the beagle pictured on left) wasn't looking so good and he was getting sick. He looked sad and lethargic, so we tested him for Parvo and the poor guy tested positive. We decided to test all the dogs that came with him and Frito (beagle pictured on right), who also came from the same shelter tested positive as well. They have been through so much already, it pains us that they are now sick with a serious virus. Even though they must be feeling incredibly ill, they wagged their tails for staff a few times after arriving. They are seriously the sweetest little beagles and don't deserve this.Â
Parvo is a highly contagious and deadly virus so we immediately sent them to a hospital to begin treatment and where they could be watched closely. The treatment for Parvo is very expensive and we need to raise the funds to ensure they have the best fighting chance. They are extremely sweet dogs who we want to give the best chance at finding new loving homes, but first we need to get them healthy. Will you please consider contributing to their fight?
