Gorgeous Gunther, vegging out with his Best Bud!!
Gunther
was a lucky boy when he found his way into Patty's home, a foster for Midwest
Doberman Rescue. At first, he was so painfully shy, but slowly he gained some
confidence with the reassuring care he received. The tests performed found Copper
Toxicosis - another problem from which our dear Dobes suffer. There is no cure,
but it is a somewhat treatable disease where the liver accumulates too much
copper it cannot move out of the liver which then causes sclerosis. Cuprimine
or it's equivalent, penicillamine only slows the process - it does not cure
it. Penicillamine is a chelating agent which is used In Wilson's disease, a
genetic disorder of copper metabolism. Penicillamine treatment relies on its
binding to accumulated copper and elimination through urine. Gunther must have
this costly medicine in order to live. With the help of Diamondback Drugs, SND
is able to provide the meds at half the ordinary cost. But we still need your
help in the form of donations to help SND offset the costly expense of this
medication! With penicillamine, proper diet and the love of his family, Gunther
will have the best in life that his loving family can provide. Thank
you so much for helping Gunther with his medications.
Please help Mr. Gunther's family help him by sending in a tax-deductible donation online by using the PayPal button below, or by mailing one in. Thank you for any assistance you can provide to help with this Great DobeGuy’s therapy with Penicillamine.
