Help Genny!

This is Genny, a gentle and kind Dobermann Pinscher who believes is a lap dog.

Tonight Genny is desperately fighting to win a battle against a most cruel disease, canine distemper.

Genny was rescued from a factory in Izmir where she was living in terrible conditions. Her rescuer found a person in Facebook willing to adopt her and sent her to Istanbul. The rescuer made two mistakes:

1. Genny was not vaccinated.
2. He sent the dog to Songul Kotuklan, an individual who had recently lost a dog and simply went onto the internet to get another one.

The moment I heard the dog had gone to that person I immediately drove to her place and rescued her. Driving to Kotuklan’s home in an industrial suburb of Istanbul probably saved her life. Genny was placed on one of our safe houses.

Yesterday we received the most terrible news. Genny is very ill and has tested positive for canine distemper.

Genny is very lucky, she has had a very early diagnosis and she is currently being treated by the best vets in Istanbul using the most advanced medication available. We are hopeful she will survive this test, but at the moment her situation is critical. Furthermore, we are bracing ourselves for an even bigger problem and we are closely monitoring those dogs Genny has come in contact during the last two weeks. We are confident we will be able to treat any case from the moment they show the first symptoms.

This will be either a nightmare or yet another of Let’s Adopt! success stories…

For now I need to kindly request your help towards Genny’s veterinary treatment and towards our emergency fund. When Let’s Adopt! was created it was our intention to be able to function without having to rely on any of our member’s support, unfortunately peoples incredible irresponsibility has taken our personal capabilities to the limit.

This is one more of those cases.

So here is Genny. Help her please.
