She has shown some progress with her legs but she still cant walk so we searched for a wheel chair but its not available here in Nepal. We will have to import it which will cost a lot of money.

Hi my name is Tara (from Texas) and my baby boy Gus an English Bulldog tore his ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament). I have taken him to several vets to see what options I have and have been told the same thing "He needs surgery". This surgery is expensive it is anywhere from $2500.00 to $3500.00 dollars. I am a single mom of 5 and can't come up with the money for the surgery. I am requesting that any pet lovers or any one that can help would make some donations to help Gus. He is in al ot of pain and I was told if he doesn't get surgery it will cause eventually, DJD... degenerative joint disease... and arthritis. My baby is only 7months old and I don't want him suffering for the rest of his life. The surgery that is needed is called TIBEAL PLATEAU LEVELING OSTEOTOMY or TPLO surgery.  This requires specialized instruction, special bone saws and metal implants. I hate to have my baby cut into but I don't have any options. I know everyone is tight on money now but anything would help $1.00,$5.00,$10.00 or whatever you can afford. I have enclosed a picture of Gus and would be more than happy to send pictures of his process and progress to anyone that is interested and if needed I can send a receipt for a tax deductible donation. Anything will be greatly appreciated. My paypal account is tara_pavlicek@yahoo.com or I can be reached at 979-732-7833 or 979-725-6933. Thank you very much and God Bless

The vet is Dr. Michael Ridlen At Colorado Valley Veterinary Services 979-732-9981. This vet has to refer Gus to Gulf coast Veterinary services in Houston,Texas But anyone can call and get the Info for my baby. 


Last night I came home about 10:45 p.m. from a work related meeting. I thought there was a deer in the middle of the road so I slowed down. WELL it was not a deer. It was a dumped Walker Hound. His right front leg/foot is injured (the paw is hot to the touch) and he is emaciated. No doubt will be heartworm positive, they all are. His nails are long, he smell like no other dog I have ever found or rescued. I will not be able to keep him here unless I receive donations for care. My husband and I just spent $6500.00 for another rescue dog that was injured and we are now BROKE. We received one donation of $25.00 for Barney.
We are not in any position to help this guy, if we do not get support. If I do not get help, I will be forced to take him to the pound where he undoubtedly will be killed. He will be a “DEAD DOG WALKING” AT THE LOCAL SHELTER. All the rescues are slammed full, this I know because I have been trying to find a place for the other hounds that were discarded that are here. This will bring it up to 11 dogs WE CAN’T HANDLE THIS MANY DOGS WITHOUT SOME HELP. I do not want help for the other dogs, just this guy, who has no name.
It is abundantly clear that he has been neglected his entire life. I would like an opportunity to show him that he can be well fed, loved and brought to health, but I will not be able to do this without your assistance. $5.00, $10.00 or anything that one can afford would be greatly, greatly appreciated. I know that everyone is tight on money right now. I am living that so I do understand very well.
Won’t you please help me get this poor guy vetted?
My paypal account is sylvasylva59@embarqmail.com please indicate if you would like a receipt for your donation(s). I cannot even take him to the vet before I gather enough funds for a vet visit.
Thank you. Sylva and "Caleb"   sylvasylva59@embarqmail.com

 

 


 

Hello, My name is Lisa . I rescued a little guy off the street and he needs help.  There is no telling how long he has been out on the street, I did all the things that I could think of to do, I put up signs, put an ad in the Sac Bee, Craigslist.  I have had not response.  This little guy is about 10-12 lbs I would say he is 15 plus years old, he is almost blind, he hears pretty well, I know he needs medical attention, he has a bad cough (not like kennel cough) this is more like an asthma cough in humans.  He breaths very heavy shot breaths. Since I have had him his energy level is up.  I am unable at this time to get him the medical help i'm sure he needs.  I was really hoping that one of you rescue groups out there could take him.  I do not want to take him to the SPCA.  I have attached a couple of pictures of him.  I have been wanting to give him a bath and clean him up but I was afraid that he might get sicker than he is if he gets cold. 
Will one of you please help this little guy!!  Please email me or call me 916-912-7496  LBRESHEARS2003@comcast.net

 



My name is Desiree Smith ( a resident of Louisiana ). I am writing in hopes of obtaining help for our beloved handicap family pet Bo.
Bo, is a 4 year old Boston terrier. About 2 years ago Bo suffered a ruptured disc due to Canine Interverterbral disc disease. He was left unable to walk due to rear leg paralization.  Bo's only chance to walk again was to have a very costly back surgery. Even though my parents could not afford this, they could not say no. They were able to borrow the money to have the surgery done. It is now 2 years down the road and Bo is still unable to walk, the veterinarian said it was a 50/50 chance because of the damage to his spinal cord.
Unfortunately my parents are still unable to afford a wheelchair for him. I believe his quality of life will be significantly improved if he could move around without having to struggle and scoot.
Not only is this a challenge for him, but for the family as well. Bo has many accidents in the house because he is unable to move fast enough to make it outside. My mother must also bandage his legs daily to prevent sores from scooting.
Please consider helping my family obtain a wheelchair for our Bo Buddy. It would be greatly appreciated.
If this is not something you can do, please let us know of
any other resources available.
 Sincerely,Desiree Smith dvintismith@hotmail.com

 

 


 

My husband and I recently adopted a  5 year old cocker spaniel (Cookie). We got her on a wellness plan with Petsmart. However, my husband just had surgery and well we did not expect all these out of pocket bills. Cookie has catarcts and since she's young the vet is encouraging it. However, the bill costs about 2,800 plus the 90.00 consultation fee. Please, if there was a way that someone could please, please help us.

Thanks Roma Olivares ROlivares@aldine.k12.tx.us

I work with a volunteer group in northern NJ that medically helps animals from the Bergen County Animal Shelter in Teterboro NJ for animals they can't afford to treat.  Buster is a 3 year old, neutered,  Shepherd/Akita mix who was hit by a car and brought to the shelter.  FOCAS, the volunteer group, paid for his physical therapy at a specialist hospital for over 5 weeks but his time is up.  He only improved slightly and needs a sling and two people to help him walk.  He eliminates outside but is 79 pounds and just a love.  Everyone at the hospital  loves him.    We don't want to bring him to the shelter because they will put him down.  Please, Please help.  VICKY CASTRONOVO dogdays1@verizon.net>
