Bella |
Jill Moss has helped all of us pet lovers in so many ways, regarding MRSA. I never even knew about how horrible this can be for our furry children, until I just happened to run into her site. I had my Bella, and eight pound, red, mini Dachshund checked out immediately. And she was again checked about 3 weeks ago. Thank The Dear Lord that she is okay. As I told Jill, she is in our prayers daily, but I thank God that she has made us all aware of this terrible infection. John and I love you, Jill!
Love,
Jan Stroncheck (USA)

Ebony |
The support I have received from Jill @ pets-mrsa has been invaluable. Through her I have been helped and given advice from several top veterinary surgeons and microbiologists.
My dog Ebony has been on antibiotics since the beginning of last Summer because of ulcerated areas in her hind feet and under her right armpit. My vet has taken routine swabs from the infected areas regularly but the one that came back in January showed she had MRSA. Because I am due to have some corrective surgery on my face I was swabbed and I came back MRSA positive also. Obviously, this has caused great concern for not only me and her but all my family. To be able to talk to Jill and for her to put me in touch with top people in this field has given me answers, help and advice from people I would not normally be able to contact. I know Jill has been inspired by the death of her own beloved dog but she has made the veterinary world sit up and realize there IS A PROBLEM.

Tarka |
On the 15th Febuary 2005 my 9 year old Weimeraner bitch Tarka, had to have an emergency operation for bloat. All went well! How relieved we were. Then a couple of weeks later the wound started to weep. Tarka went off her food, a bit moody and lethargic. I phoned the vets immediately.we took her in. The vet thought she maybe rejecting the internal stitches. So back into surgery. When they opened her up they found pockets of infection. She underwent further surgery to de-bride the wound and take swabs. The next thing we heard was that Tarka had MRSA (what a blow, my dog has the superbug !!!) The vet had to de-bride the wound and leave the wound open. Tarka was put into isolation and whilst swabs were taken and sent off to the labs in liverpool.She was very unhappy after 8 days . She had the dreaded collar fitted,which she hated. We offered to take Tarka home and nurse her at home.the vet said we had to wait for lab results to come through to see whether she was a carrier. The test came back negative, of course. That was last Tuesday. Tarka is very happy. The wound has healed by two thirds and we are astounded how we have beaten THE SUPERBUG, wow. The vets have been very good about supplying us with the dressings etc. i wonder why? Dont be afraid of this bug. It can be beaten, if caught early enough. When i first heard. My HEART DROPPED! I found out about Jill Moss on the internet. I contacted Jill and she was so positive. She really helped me to decide to go for it. Thanks Jill, you are doing a great job. Let me know if I can help in any way.

Larry |
My dog Larry became infected with MRSA following cruciate ligament surgery (just like Bella did)
I searched the website for information on pets and MRSA and found The Bella Moss Foundation. Jill spoke with me for many hours and advised me on what to ask my vet and put me in touch with experts who could offer me advise when my vet knew very little. Larry is now doing well; he is only three years old. Jill told me that when Bella died she searched Internet for information on MRSA in pets and found nothing so set up the website www.pets-mrsa.com Now in the memory of Bella a beautiful lady who died so tragically, other animals are being saved.
Thank you Jill so much and we pray for you every day and for Bella who is at the rainbow bridge where all special souls go to she will never have died in vain you must believe that.
