Undeniably, Odie is a warrior: What this pup lacks in size, he makes up for in spirit. His future is looking BRIGHT, and rescuers are doing everything they can to support him in his fight and ensure it stays this way. At this time, donations are urgently needed to help support the cost of this baby's emergency care at the ER – the total cost of which came out to be $4125.87. The aggressive treatments required to tackle his Parvovirus and parasite-ridden body get very expensive, very fast, and right now, Odie could use all the help he can get.
Please keep this special boy in your thoughts and prayers, and if you are able to assist with Odie's care, please consider donating to this fundraiser or sending him a special "get-well" item off his wishlist below. Every penny helps so much, and goes a long way in supporting this little warrior's medical care. We will update as Baby Odie's recovery progresses, thank you for your kindness and support!

In the late hours of the night, K9 Spirit Organization got alerted of an urgent emergency involving this itty-bitty baby you see before you.
His body was limp from exhaustion, and his white blood cell count was alarmingly low. He had bloody diarrhea, and incessant, uncontrollable vomiting. He spiked a fever within a matter of hours. His gums went from a healthy brink pink to grey (yes, GREY). He was so lethargic that he could hardly move. And sadly, tests also confirmed that Odie had tested positive for the very deadly, but 100% preventable, Parvovirus - a particularly harsh sentence for a baby this young.
Had his owners been, well, responsible owners, an innocent life would not have been put in this position. Yet, poor Odie is in this position, because responsible ownership was not his reality. So, despite just barely getting his start in this world, this lil guy was now fighting hard to stay in it. And it was a fight he was battling to win largely on his own – as he was handed over to a shelter the second he showed signs that something was “off.” But there was no time to ask questions – not when this deserving life was at stake.
Thankfully, those at K9 Spirit Organization came across the shelter's post this little angel – fighting hard to survive – and knew immediately: Baby Odie deserved SO much better than this. So, he was welcomed into the Rescue family and promptly rushed to the ER to receive the emergency medical care he so desperately needed. He remained under round-the-clock care at the ER, receiving constant IV fluids and a parvovirus serum - and slowly-but-surely, things started looking up. And recently, he turned a BIG corner in his recovery: Getting to come home from the ER, to his amazing medical Foster Momma!!
