It is with a heavy heart that we share the decision to euthanize little Aloha yesterday. At the time, his blood pressures had dropped to the point of causing organ damage and he was succumbing to aspiration pneumonia following persistent regurgitation following his surgery.

While we desperately wanted a happy outcome for Aloha, this sudden turn would have resulted in significant suffering with the likelihood that he wouldn't be able to pull through in the end.

Thank you to everyone who shared Aloha's story and donated to his treatment. Thank you again to Dr. Augusta Pelosi and the staff of Aloha Pet & Bird Hospital and Calusa Veterinary Center for your dedication to his recovery.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to raise enough funds to cover his therapy, beyond what Mermaid Vet Hospital donated prior to surgery. Any continued donations will help to ensure we remain viable and able to continue our mission to provide low cost care and help the animals of Florida

An update on our little puppy, Aloha. We were able to have his CT performed with the help of the awesome staff at Aloha Pet & Bird Hospital on April 27th.
He successfully underwent open-chest surgery with Dr. Augusta Pelosi on May 5th to dissect the vessels constricting his esophagus and preventing him eating. However, due to the degree to which the esophagus was damaged by the congenital defect, he is still having difficulty keeping down food, has required intensive care post-operatively and will require further surgery, once he is healthy enough.
Please pass and share! We have helped him come so far, but he has much further still to go and any donations would be greatly appreciated.

Attention animal lovers! We need your help to save a 6-week-old pitbull puppy who is suffering from a persistent right aortic arch, a congenital heart defect. This condition is causing him difficulty in breathing and swallowing, making it difficult for him to eat and grow properly.

The puppy urgently needs corrective surgery to fix his condition and give him a chance at a healthy life. However, the surgery requires a highly specialized surgeon to perform and requires advanced imaging to be performed correctly, which makes treatment very expensive.

We are appealing to the kindness and generosity of the community to help raise funds for this puppy's surgery. Mermaid Vet Hospital is already donating all the treatments and hospitalization required to get him to surgery on May 5th. Every dollar counts and will go directly towards the cost of his surgery and post-operative care.

Please donate what you can and share this post with your friends and family. Together, we can make a difference and give this sweet puppy the chance he deserves.
