TAMPA, FL — The Tampa German shepherd who took three bites from a diamondback rattlesnake to protect his owner’s 7-year-old daughter last week is on the road to recovery, veterinary officials say.
Haus, 2, was in the DeLuca family’s Tampa backyard last week with Molly, 7, and her grandmother when the dog spotted a rattlesnake. Haus reportedly swung into action, jumping between the deadly snake the little girl.
Haus was bitten three times by the snake, “but stood his ground,” Carrie O’Brion, spokeswoman for BluePearl Veterinary Partners told Patch
“Haus is doing really well,” O’Brion said Monday “He has been eating and walking, and his bloodwork is improving every day.”
...
The potential cost of his care was estimated at more than $10,000 prompting the creation of a GoFundMe campaign. That campaign raised more than $52,000 in four days, prompting Donya DeLuca, Molly’s mother, to close the fundraiser and ask folks to donate instead to Heidi’s Legacy Rescue, the organization the family adopted Haus from.
