FAWN IS FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE!

Our sweet Fawn is a 9-week old Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix puppy currently fighting for her life. Please keep this sweet baby in your thoughts and prayers.


At approximately 3pm this afternoon, Fawn was brought into a local shelter by good Samaritans who found her dropped off on their front porch. She was extremely lethargic and not eating. The shelter vet immediately looked her over and she tested positive for canine parvovirus, a serious and often fatal disease of puppies that attacks the gastrointestinal system.

The shelter immediately contacted us for help, and within hours this adorable puppy was transferred into our care. She is currently staying in isolation at our veterinary hospital, receiving emergency care and IV fluids. Despite how sick she is, she is still able to pick her head up and you can see that ‘look’ in her eyes. A look of gratefulness, of appreciation, a thank you for saving me.

Please keep our sweet puppy in your thoughts and prayers. She is fighting hard for her life and everyone is hoping she will pull through. As an all volunteer, 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, Pet Rescue of Mercer relies heavily on your donations to continue saving lives. If you would like to make a donation towards saving Fawn, contributions can be made online through our website www.petrescueofmercer.org or mailed directly to us at Pet Rescue of Mercer, P.O. Box 2574, Hamilton, NJ 08690.
