RED PAW UPDATE - NY 3 SAFE

Many of you followed the story of the NY 3 hoping against hope that they would make it to safety. They were dumped and were found as strays and were taken to one of the worst shelters in our region. The good news is that they are in route to DRBC, but the bad news focuses on their condition. Today they, and we face a new challenge, restoring their health.

Cute little Anastasia has severe eye disease. Her tear production is minimal and it is not known if she can see. Additionally, she has mammary tumors, severe dental disease and a pronounced heart murmur. She will require a trip to NorthStar VETS for her eyes and heart, and time at 4PAWS to remove her mammary masses and repair her mouth. We are estimating her care at $2225.

Scooby seems to have fared the best of the three, but he too has severe dental disease that makes even petting his head painful. He will also require blood work and a cardiac evaluation as a murmur was noted on arrival at the shelter. The ticket for his care will run about $1500.

Finally, there is Lindo. He is clearly in the worst shape of the 3. His eyes are completely closed over with discharge. He has the worst dental issues and may require oral reconstructive work. The infection in his mouth has led to open sores on his muzzle. Blood work, radiographs and surgery will leave DRBC with a bill in excess of $1750.
We are reaching out today to ask for your support in our effort to save these little ones. Prayers and well wishes are great, but they do not pay the bills. Please step up and make a difference. They so desperately need you. The intense neglect will take a tremendous about of medical skill and time to reverse and we know $5000 is a lot of funding, but we can do it if we all work together.
Remember, generous support is desperately needed and greatly appreciated. Like many non-profit organizations DRBC is a 501[c][3] operated solely by volunteers. We have been dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, re-homing and educating families about this breed for over 32 years. We welcome and need your benevolent tax-deductible donation. Please, help us to help them by following the link below.
We welcome you to stay tuned for updates. Until then, Anastasia, Scooby, Lindo all the rescue doxies and the DRBC Team thank you.
