Donation Challenge for Norman “Noodles”
March 23, 2012
Clarksville, TN – The Humane Society of Clarksville-Montgomery County pulled me from Montgomery County Animal Control yesterday morning. I just wasn’t feeling as chipper as a pup my age should, and my foster mom noticed right away.
I tested positive for PARVO, but fortunately they caught it early and I have been given a really good prognosis. This is a scary virus though and a lot of my puppy friends die from it every year, so I have to stay at the hospital over the weekend for IV fluids, antibiotics and monitoring to make SURE I receive around-the-clock care.
Yesterday… waiting for test results at the clinic.
