Rex’s Story
Rex’s mom- I am an older lady who only gets a pension and who has always had a passion for animals
and especially dogs, I have from a baby had dogs as pets but I still care about and protect all creatures
big and small, I was involved in rescue and fostering but due to the costs, I have had cut back on things,
this brings me to Rex and my other 8 rescue dogs at home with me.
My home is also their home, they even have a double bed in my room as well as my room that they
sleep on at night.
Rex is a cross bread between GSD/ Husky with the most beautiful nature and with such obedience in
him, he came to me as a tiny puppy at about 4 to 6 weeks old you could hold him in one hand he was so
small, as my family and friends know, that if I get given a puppy or even a grown dog, that this is where
they will stay for the rest of their lives, this is the care of Rex, he is now 3 to 4 years old and started with
nose bleeds in October and after treatments and medications, we have had to rush him to the
emergency hospital in Westville where he was diagnosed with a tumor in his nose, he is still in need of a
MRI scan and possibly a operation to remove the tumor and chemo therapy after, there is so much that
still has to get done to get this beautiful animal in good health again, I am asking for the help of the
public to help me by donating towards Rex’s bills to get him the treatment he needs. It is estimated at
around R40 000 for everything.
Rex is part of my family and It hurts me to see him in so much discomfort.
