Max, the dog can look forward to a healthy life thanks to René Parker, the founder of Cause4Paws.
Parker said she received a call from her Pawrangers in Jackson informal settlement informing her of a dog that needs help, on March 20.
When she arrived it was clear that the dog was struggling to walk and he had a lot of swelling on his legs.
No one was able to help Max.
“I took Max to Brackenhurst Vet where they discovered that he had a huge abscess and that they needed to operate. As we speak, Max is fine where he is,” said René.
She said during this lockdown period her concern is the well-being of pets.
“Cause4Paws are blessed to have the Pawrangers staying at the Cause4Paws Care Centre to help with injured and sick animals.
“I have a permit to drive in and collect these animals that need emergency care in lockdown,” she added.
If there is anyone that would like to donate much-needed cat or dog food or perishables for Pawrangers, you can WhatsApp on 083 414 6144.
