Utley's story...
Please contact Jenn (jenn@abuddyforlife.org) for more information about this pet.

This is Utley. He is estimated to be between 6-7 years old.  Utley has been wandering stray for over a year. Finally someone called for help for this pitiful fella. He barely has any hair, and his skin is raw and bloody. He scratches himself to the point of sheer exhaustion. His greatest wish right now is relief.

Utley is now receiving the treatment his poor little body desperately needs. He has demodectic mange, as well as flea allergy dermatitis. Compounding both of these issues, he has also created a secondary bacterial infection on his skin from scratching himself. Neither one of these conditions is contagious to humans, other dogs, or cats.

This brave little guy will go through months of daily baths, antibiotics, and special topical treatments to heal his severely irritated and inflamed skin. He got his first bath tonight, and he really enjoyed it. He loved having us rub his skin for him, and he loved getting all of the old scabs and wads of tough hair off his body. His tail wagged the whole time, and he fell asleep not soon after. I think he finally found a small amount of comfort at human hands.

Utley will have a long road ahead of him. His hair may or may not grow back. He may bounce back in a few weeks, maybe months.

We have committed ourselves to his comfort. We want him to know nothing but happiness and safety at human hands.

Won't you please consider making a donation or sponsoring Utley so that he may one day soon stop scratching and remember what it is like to be a happy, playful dog?

Check back for updates on Utley! We will be posting info and new pics as his treatment continues!
