DANI - at the worst possible time, the summer dumping season, a Houston-area
breeder dumped several of her older female breeding dogs at the pound.  Three of them
turned up with heartworm disease, a 100% fatal disease that is also totally preventable
with only a $.25 dose of ivermectin.  Of course, heartworm preventative would have cut in
on her profit margin, so these little dogs were facing death at the pound (who would adopt
a heartworm positive dog?).  

Well, we picked them all up and are treating Dani's heartworms.  But, she needs someone
to sponsor her vet bill.

Thank You!!!
Because of the long recovery period(six weeks) and the expense of treating ($450-$600) heartworms, most dogs
that arrive at animal control facilities with heartworm disease are, out of necessity, euthanized.   Death would have
been this dog's fate without the donors that allow us to save and treat medical conditions like this.
Here Dani is being photographed at
the animal control facility.  She
was just turned in by the breeder
that has been making money on her
puppies for years.
Once at our vets office, Dani received a
complete physical, including blood work.  Her
blood values looked good and she was
immediately spayed.
About a week after being spayed, Dani
was doing well so she began her
heartworm treatment.

Forever Fosters are dogs that no one wants to adopt.  They might be
seniors and considered too old by most adoptive families.  Some have
terminal medical conditions and consequently, no one wants to adopt
them for that reason.    

But we feel that they deserve a loving home despite their problems.  
So these special ones become "Forever Fosters."  This means that
they live the remainder of their lives with their foster family but in
the Lone Star Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso Rescue "Forever Foster"
program.  The foster family provides a loving home for the little dogs
to live out the remainder of their lives.  

But the little dogs need YOUR help with their medical bills.    Each of
the "Forever Fosters" needs a sponsor for their veterinary bills.
