The dirofilaria Immitis saga continues!

The dirofilaria Immitis saga continues!
2018.01.16.

Today we took our 4 protegés to Dr. Dalma Péterfia cardiologist and heartworm specialist and we came home with mixed emotions.

Jive the protegé of the Noah's animal home Boxer rescue team whose PCR test came back positive. The ultrasound showed that he doesn't have full grown worms around his heart but his blood is full of heartworm larvas so his treatment will be taken place at the vet clinic and at first he will get a thinning treatment then continue with a slow therapy.

Ficánka has been in our care for a long time. He is Pekinese mix with epilepsy who already lost his 2 eyes due to glaucoma. Also it was suspected that he has cushing syndrome and the lab results confirmed it. Also the ultrasound showed that he has adrenal cancer and that causes the problems. It is inoperable and we are hoping that the expensive Vetoryl treatment will give him more time.

Sole our wonderful German shepherd dog already had an unsuccessful heartworm removal surgery by catheter so he has received the 6 month long medical treatment and we were hoping that we will receive good news today that the vet will not see any worms but unfortunately that was not the case. There are some grown worms around his heart so he will receive another 6 month long medical treatment.

Bajusz our Puli like new protegé who came to us because his owner has died. The quick test came back positive. The ultrasound showed that he doesn't have any full grown worms around his heart but there are a lot of ovums in his blood and to determine what kind they are (heartworm or skinworm) a PCR test will be done.

So all 4 of them need treatment. Our visit today cost us 70,000,- forint (about 230 euros). Their further treatment will long and expensive and we need you help!

Please, help us so we can help them and others!
