~ Trevor ~

A Broken Heart

Because Trevor has continuing medical needs, along with the costs involved with his fostering care, we are seeking ongoing donations to help with these costs.  To date, we have expended over $1,500.00 for Trevor's medical care.  Please consider donating to help Trevor enjoy his final days in comfort.

Please donate today. 

On Tuesday, March 20th, Trevor was transported to Texas A&M University Small Animal Clinic for additional testing on his heart.  The results of these tests are devastating.  Trevor has been diagnosed with:

Ventricular Septal Defect

Patent Ductus Arteriosis

Mitral Valve Dysplasia

Pulmonary Hypertension

Because of the severity of the problems with Trevor's heart, he does not have a surgical option to correct any of these defects.

While there are steps already being taken to allow more oxygenation of his blood, Trevor's condition is very grave.  He is currently being watched on an ongoing basis and allowed multiple outdoor visits and playtime.  He is not in any kind of pain or distress.  At some point, Trevor will go into cardiac and/or respiratory failure.

Although we are all very upset with the news that Trevor cannot be helped, we are thankful that Trevor was given a chance to have surgery.  This is more than he's ever had in the past.  We thank all of those that have donated to Trevor's Care, which allowed him the opportunity for the testing he so badly needed.  Trevor is now in our Hospice Care Program.

Trevor has recently been diagnosed with Cyanosis (inadequate oxygenation of the blood) and a heart murmur.  Further testing has resulted in a preliminary finding of Pulmonic Stenosis (Narrowing of the right ventricle outflow tract) and drastic enlargement of the heart muscle.  Trevor is being transported to Texas A&M University Small Animal Clinic, College Station, Texas,  on Tuesday - March 20th, for a Doppler Study.  The results of this test will determine whether or not Trevor is a candidate for heart surgery.  If he is, the surgery has a very good success rate, which will allow Trevor to have a normal life span!  Please help us with Trevor's needs.  Currently, we are needing to raise $500.00 for Trevor's Doppler Echocardiography.  If he is a candidate for heart surgery, we will quickly need to raise an additional $2,300.00.

We were contacted by a shelter to rescue Trevor on his last day. They knew what a great young man he is and wanted him to have a 2nd chance.

Trevor has had a full medical exam, has been neutered and has received all necessary vaccinations and has been microchipped.

He is a very friendly guy and weighs under 15 pounds. He would make a great family companion.

Scottie Kingdom Rescue is a 501(c)3 Non Profit Organization. We prefer to adopt to families with past Scottie, Westie and/or Terrier experience, but realize this isn’t always possible. You must have a secure & fenced yard.

We do not ship our pets. If you have that special place in your heart & in your home for a Scottie (or any of our other available Rescue Dogs), please be prepared to visit us in Dallas for an in person meet & greet session with our Available Dogs. If you have existing pets, they must travel to Dallas with you, so we can be assured that they will be compatible with the new addition to your family.

Please contact us at Rescue@scottiekingdom.com to receive an Adoption Application or for more information on our Adoption process.

Thank you for considering Adoption!
