Mercury was hit by a car and brought to an emergency veterinary hospital by his owners. His hip was dislocated and the top layers of skin and tissue on his rear legs scraped away. Poor Mercury's owners weren't able to afford his care and decided to surrender him to the shelter so he could receive proper treatment.
Mercury's wounds were immediately surgically debrided. He's now on daily bandage changes and antibiotics, but will need hip surgery once his skin has healed. It will take up to six additional weeks of rehabilitation at the shelter before Mercury will be ready to find a loving home.
Help Mercury heal after a terrible accident!
Location: Washington

You can help sweet Mercury begin his treatment. Your support will not only give him the hope to keep fighting, but your donations will help cover the ongoing care he will need.

Important Info
100% of your Gift That Gives More™ donation will go as a charitable gift to Greater Good Charities. GreaterGood stores pay the credit card transaction fee, so every cent of your donation goes to charity.
Greater Good Charities has ultimate authority and discretion with regard to the distribution of its funds. All expenditures made are consistent with the exempt purposes of Greater Good Charities.
There are a lot of things to spend money on, but I can't think of a better way than using it to help an animal in need. It would be wonderful if every dog and cat (and all others) could find their forever loving home.
