PLEASE
HELP!
Willow is a 4-month-old female Rottweiler
who came to us last week via a Good Samaritan’s phone call. Willow was due to be euthanized through no
fault of her own. Her family allowed her
to ride unrestrained in the car near the window. Willow jumped from the moving car and was run
over by the vehicle tires suffering an irreparable injury to her paw. Unable to pay for the amputation surgery
Willow needed, her owners opted to put her down or try to find her a new home.
We found
out about her and brought her to safety.
Now
we need YOUR HELP!
On
September 11th Willow will have her right-front leg removed at the
shoulder. This amputation is being done
at a discounted rate by our WONDERFUL vet Elizabeth Hennessy at Carr Island
Animal Hospital but we are estimating that her surgery, medical cost (she still
needs to be spayed and will need a second round of shots before she can be
placed) and care will total over $2,000.00 once it is all said and done.
Please
donate your spare change and tell your friends!
Willow is a lovely girl and deserves a second chance at happiness. It is not her fault that this happened to her
and we won’t allow her to suffer because of irresponsible
humans!
