Meet Ophelia! She recently came to Safe Haven as a stray and was soon after surrendered by her owners as they knew she needed special medical attention. She is a very sweet lovable giant - who is always looking for someone to sit with! She came to Safe Haven underweight and thin, we have been adjusting her diet to help her gain some weight. After further testing done by our Veterinarian, Ophelia has been diagnosed with Pancreatitis. We are not sure whether or not this diagnosis is an acute or chronic condition at this point in her treatment. She has been and will need to continue weekly B12 injections for atleast six weeks. She is also taking a pancreatic enzyme medication which helps her get as many nutrients as she can out of the special diet/food she eats, this medication will need to be continued for atleast another 6-8 weeks until further retesting can be done to see any changes in the diagnosis. Out Veterinarian is willing and able to do the injections and retesting for Ophelia's condition, but any potential adopter must have a close relationship with their primary veterinarian and be able to continue with any further testing, ongoing medical care Ophelia may need in the future. She is a special girl, looking for a very special home. We would love to see her in a loving home while she continues the medical care she is currently receiving. If you are at all interested in Ophelia or have further questions about this gentle giant, please use our email address to reach out.
