Sometimes we may get more than we anticipate...and it can be heartbreaking. Such is the case with Keola, a young Golden Doodle recently adopted by one of our clients. Keola is a young one and a half year old doodle that has been previously diagnosed with crippling advanced stage hip dysplasia. This has led her to be in constant discomfort beyond what can be helped with joint supplements and pain medications. Her adpoted parents are looking into surgical options for her including a total hip replacement to be done at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine. Surgery is planned for this December, but will be a huge financial burden for her new parents. Through the Doodle Rescue Service where Keola was adopted, her new parents are raising funds to help defray some of the surgical costs. To learn more about Keola's condition, please follow the link: http://doodlemessenger.webs.com/doodleinneedkeola.htm . If you would graciously like to donate to helping Keola, please contact our office at 561.451.8838. Keola is far too young to have to suffer from such a debilitating and correctable condition. We hope she can get her surgery soon and be on her way to recovery! Best wishes Keola!Gregg Kuehnel DVM
