Striker, a dog suffering from Valley Fever, is taken for a walk at the Southern Arizona Humane Society. He has an emotional support toy in his mouth, but more support is on its way.
It started two years ago when NFL great and former Arizona Wildcat Rob Gronkowski told people he'd get a dog if he and the Buccaneers won the Super Bowl.
Ralphie, Gronk's french bulldog, is healthy. However, the same cannot be said for many of the animals that Dr. Sarah Neuser, a veterinarian, treats at the Southern Arizona Humane Society. The future Hall of Famer has committed one million dollars as an investor to an animal health company called Anivive Lifesciences. It is currently working with the veterinary profession at institutions such as the University of Arizona. And, they are working on a vaccine for Valley Fever.The vaccine from Anivive is currently under review form the United States Department of Agriculture, and it is targeting late 2023 or early 2024 for approval.
