Harvey is a sweet 1 year old pit who needs surgery. He came into animal control with a broken leg in Greenville, SC. His leg is infected and needs to be amputated. He has been on antibiotics for several months now. We have a rescue for him and now we need to get his surgery done so this sweet boy can be saved.

Harvey’s x-rays came back that his infection is below where the amputation will take place. We were concerned that the infection was much higher and am relieved to know the surgery can go forward on Monday morning. He will remain on the antibiotic he is on now until after the surgery and then he will be put on a different one. He is comfortable and a happy boy. He will function a lot better after the leg is removed. Right now the leg is hurting and in the way of good mobility.

Harvey just got out of surgery and is doing great. He was also neutered at the same time since it better for him to get it all done at once. If all goes well, he will be going to his foster home with Lucky Charm Pit Bull Rescue on Wednesday.
