A veterinarian will perform a radical treatment on a rescued dog that he hopes will soon have a new home.The 6-month-old German shepherd was rescued five months ago after his owner was committed to a facility and could no longer take care of him. The puppy had an ear infection that spread into his sinuses, leaving him with gaping wounds in his face.
The dog will undergo a procedure in which his face will literally be peeled back so that a veterinarian will be able to treat the infection. The procedure costs $4,000, and the clinic is hoping those in the community will help defray the cost.
Those taking care of the dog they call "Bear" hope that once he is healthy, someone will give him a new home.
