My story
Russ is a beautiful, happy, playful, intelligent, active young Dalmatian. He was found as a stray in a small rural, LA community + placed in the shelter. There was no foot traffic or visitors so no one saw him. They were about to kill him when he was located by a rescuer nearby. Terrie placed him with a loving local family who set out to help him. It was discovered that he was very low HW positive. Treatment was begun immediately using 400 mg of Doxycyline daily and a ProHeart shot. This is standard protocol for slow kill for such low infestation.
