Mo
Update: 6/20/05
Mo, aka Mo Passion, is a striking 4-year-old dark red male, born July 1, 2001. Mo's sire is the famous Molotov and his dam is Blue Tar. Greyhound-Data.org shows 51 races to Mo's credit all at Bluffs Run in Iowa starting February 18, 2003 and ending January 6, 2004. Mo came to GALT with a plate and screws already in his right rear hock and no record of when they were placed. There appears to be an infection in the leg. Mo is scheduled to see Dr. Bob Radash of the Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center on Friday, May 20, for a complete evaluation. Results of that appointment will be posted here.
See Greyhound-Data.com for Pedigree.
The special medical treatment cost needed by Mo is why the Miss Mesa Fund was established. If you would like to help with Mo's care, please take a moment to make a donation to the fund. You can use a credit card, check or PayPal by making the donation through the GALT GreytStore. You can also write a check (Greyhound Adoption League of Texas, P.O. Box 680, Addison, TX 75001) and note Miss Mesa Fund/Mo on your check.

You WILL and CAN make a difference in Mo's life and the lives of other greyhounds in need of special medical care. Your help and support will make a difference...one greyhound at a time.
Update
6/20/05:
Mos leg is healing very well, and the staph infection appears to
be cured. He has several more weeks of close monitoring of his activity,
and then hopefully looking for his forever home!
Update
5/30/05:
Mos culture came back as a staph infection, and he currently is receiving
antibiotics specifically for the infection.
Update
5/20/05:
Mo was operated on May 20 by Dr. Bob Radash. The plate and screws
were taken out, and a culture of the tissue was taken to determine the
type of infection that is affecting the area. He will go to his foster
home on 5/21, and his exercise must be monitored very carefully for the
next 4-6 weeks as his leg will be weakened due to the screw holes. Results
of the culture will be back by 5/28.
