Elmer was returned to the shelter, after being able to breathe on his own and hold down food, said Nancy Patton, dog care coordinator at the Animal Friends Humane Society. He is receiving medication and breathing treatments at the facility.
Elmer’s vet bill is more than $4,000 and the Animal Friends Humane Society needs help to cover his stay. Elmer also will be needing a foster family to help while he recovers. Once he has recovered, he will be available for adoption.
Animal Friends Humane Society was established in 1952 and is Butler County’s largest and oldest nonprofit animal shelter.
