It's a big surgery for a 4 lb little pup. He was surrendered to Heavenly Angels with a heart murmur, that we soon discovered was not just a murmur. Patent Ductus Arteriosus is a birth defect that if not corrected, will quickly lead to an enlarged heart and Congestive Heart Failure. At almost ten months old,  he has 85% chance to live to two years old. 

Boddhi Bowie aka Bobo, will have open-chest surgery on May 24th at Animal Medical Center. Tests, consults and two echocardiograms thus far were paid by a friend of the rescue.

We will post the estimate as soon as we receive a copy of it, but the surgical team at AMC provided a range of $7200.

Please donate what you can, send love if you can't, and share. 

Everyone is struggling and we live in hard times, but we couldn't say no to this beautiful soul. He is pure love and joy.

Hello Bowie fans!

Bowie got an thumbs app from the surgical team to go shirtless as incision is healing so well.

Next week he can start being allowed to be more active, with 4 to 6 week cautiously normal activities.

One week post surgery Bowie is doing beautifully.  It is a challenge to keep him quiet and calm as he feels so good and super oxygenated that he wants to play. We try to compromise as he really needs another week of strict rest.

Happy Sunday!

Bowie is doing so well, it's hard to keep him calm he wants to play and cannot for a while. 

So he is cuddling with Beanie on the couch watching Goodfellas

Hello beautiful friends!

Bowie is doing very well thanks to you all. He is eating and peeing and pooping normally. Not a fan of the meds so that's been a challenge. And as he feels better keeping him off active duty is also a challenge so he ends up being carried most of the day!

Good morning friends!

Bowie had another solid night's sleep and the pain meds help keep him quiet. He gets time to walk around away from the other doggies as he would want to engage and play.

He has been eating 3 to 4 small meals a day.

Incision is healing nicely as you can see from the photo.
