ZitatPlease meet Emma, our latest emergency. She's a 3 months old girl, brought last Thursday (09.10.2014 ) into the pound with a broken back leg, after being hit by a car. We took her out because she wouldn't have had a chance in the pound, they are not equipped to treat cases of this type. After some x-rays the doctors established that she has a femoral neck fracture in her back right leg. Unfortunately due to her age, size, fracture type and materials needed this type of fracture can't be operated in Cluj, we asked for several opinions. The option would be to operate her in Arad or Hungary, where there are doctors that are specialised in this type of procedure. Not operating her would cause a callus to grow around her joint, thus making Ema unable to use her leg for the rest of her life - we think this is very unfair for a puppy who just started her life. The cheapest option would be to go to Arad with her, but the costs would still amount to 1100 lei (around 250 euros) - 450 lei the surgerry + 300 lei transport + 200 lei x-rays + 150 lei post-op treatment. The amount is very big for us, we'll try to cover a part of it but we need your help, so if you can contribute in any way, please send us a message. We're lucky Cristina offered her a foster home, so we don't have to pay board for her. We're looking also for a permanent home for her, after she gets well. We need to make sure however that the person who adopts her understands that the surgery might not be 100% successful and she might have a slight limp for the rest of her life, so the adopter needs to love her just the way she is. Ema is great special dog, she's happy regardless of the pain she feels, she's gentle and very affectionate. She gets along well with her foster mom's dogs and cats and she just needs a helping hand now and a bit of luck to make her life a long and happy one. Thank you! Here are some films with Ema in her foster home, she's a sweety:
