Kelly is recovering

Kelly was transported from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue to the metro by the O'Sullivans and Kristin to All Dog Rescue. Then she developed parvo...

UPDATE FROM ALL DOG RESCUE:
I took Kelly to the emergency vet on Sunday night and from there called Lindsay of Akin Hills Pet Hospital to ask if we could move Kelly to Akin Hills Monday morning. To my amazement, Lindsay offered to meet me at Akin Hills that night and save us the cost of overnight hospitalization at the emergency vet -- Incredibly generous of Lindsay.

By the time I drove Kelly to Akin Hills, Dr. Batsch was there with Lindsay and they immediately got Kelly on fluids and gave her a bunch of medication. It was incredibly kind of them to meet me at 8pm on a Sunday night!

I spoke with Lindsay the next day and Kelly vomited throughout the night but is a little more alert. Age guess is 1-2 years old and she is not emaciated or otherwise in bad shape. She should survive this. They plan to keep her at Akin Hills for the entire week but the prognosis is tentatively positive.

Thank you Lindsay and Dr. Bartsch!!

FROM KAREN:
Dear Dr. Bartsch and Lindsay--

Thank you so much for taking Kelly- I just heard from All Dog that you guys responded immediately to Kelly and her needs with her parvo outbreak!! We appreciate you guys so much and are happy you are watching the Red Lake kids back in the metro!!

UPDATE ON KELLY TODAY:
Hi Karen, Kelly seems to be doing very well. Dr. Bartsch is planning to send her back to her foster home tomorrow, whew! As of Wednesday Kelly was eating well and much more alert. It helps that she came in at a good weight and aside from parvo was in good shape. What a relief!
