"Candoo (formerly Cookie) is a 2-3 year old intact Puggle. He was hit by a car up in the Ogden area almost two months ago now. He was left untreated and finally taken to the Ogden Shelter. The Shelter put out an SOS for him as they did not want to euthanize him. Our rescue group took him on and planned to have his leg amputated, do a recovery period and then place him for adoption.
The problem is Candoo has not been able to do any of that. While on antibiotics to build him up for the amputation, he crashed and ended up at the ER in Washington City where he spent a weekend. He then returned to his foster home for a day and then was hospitalized at the Red Hills Animal Hospital under the care of Scott Hannig, DMV. Dr. Hannig has been treating him for a gastro-intestinal infection with symptoms of vomitting, bloody stools, not eating, etc. He was scheduled to return to his foster home today but on the trip back got sick. He is once again at the hospital.
Dr. Hannig is aware we are a small rescue with a very limited budget and feels a decision must be made by us as to how much money we can spend on Candoo. Everyone who has met Candoo admires his spirt and wants to see the best for him.
If you have any idea for a quick, effective fund raiser, please contact me. If you wish to make a donation for his care you can make a donation directly to the Red Hills Veterinary Hospital, 435-656-8886. We have no guarantee at this time that Candoo can or will recover but we are trying everything that seems feasible."

Thanks again...
I clicked on your homepage....thankfully you do not live in my state!!! I take in any animal, any time and have my hands full right now...
Poor baby.
Also, please see post #5 for an update...
I volunteer at a shelter too and stuff like this is hard because you treat the animals like if they were you own. You probably already know this, but don’t put the little guy through too much pain trying to save him.
What’s the location of this little guy?
What a precious pup, and how heartbreaking that he is having to go through all of this. I pray that he can be saved. God bless everyone who is helping him.
If a small donation from me would do any good, FReepmail me with an address. I’ll do whatever I can.
Local schools???
“...I got the horse right here, his name is paul revere...the man says the horse CANDOO. CANDOO. The man says the horse CANDOO...”
Thanks for the use of the hall, folks.

Prayers for this sweetie. Jesus said to lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. That includes His all His creatures. May God Bless you.
Prayers up.
have you contacted the local TV station. Pick a station, call the morning show producer or go to the station and ask to speak with him or her..They are always short of “filler” quick stories and with the video they might help.
They may want you to just show up the next morning at 6am at the studio and that might work..would also help for your group!!
the morning show producers usually work from 6 to 9am ( busy during the show...) but then they stay working on the next day’s show till about 1pm.
If one stations’ producer doesn’t want the story, go to the next..local stations, and the morning show.
Sorry, Please make just one His ! Thank you:)
Contact your local Boy Scout and Girl Scout leaders! They may contribute.
Especially the Boy Souts- they can raise money!
Also civic organizatioons. Have you contacted national Pug Rescue? How about a big local pet store?
I hope Candoo pulls through. Dogs are wonderful souls.
Prayers for Candoo.
What a beautiful doggie! Prayers for Candoo are on the way.
Poochie prayer lifted.
