He was infested and in a very bad condition

The team at the rescue center began his treatment by first removing all the ticks that were infesting Wiley’s body. They further proceeded to give him a bath and test him for parasites and diseases. Sadly, it was found that Wiley had Lyme disease and anaplasmosis, This was a condition that affected his heart rate and made him anemic. Both of which needed to be treated on immediately.
