Is there anyone who can foster this dog? She is about 3 years old, small and sweet. She just tested negative for heart worm however she did test postivie for anaplasma an illness you get from ticks. She has demodex mange however this is not contagious.Both are treatable and she will be healthy soon.

Thank you for saving this sweetheart! I love the look on her face.

Thank you Laura and to Edgar who got this dog out of the perrera!!! I look at all of those photos of dogs and the fact that you and Ricardo go to that perrera to save them and how hard it must be to choose.

I am so glad this little girl will have a second chance!!

Laura--I am glad to do a fundraiser for you both!!

Lucy & Kelly, if you would like to give me some ideas even though you will not be there, that would be great.

Only thing I can come up with is a 50/50 raffle right now. I will let you know more as I think of things.
An online auction would be awesome too... but imagine that there is a lot of work involved in that.

I am a HUGE fan of live auctions it's a way to bring in good cash right away get awesome things for yourself plus have a great time also maybe a food & cat litter drive?? maybe for the person who brings the MOST donated items get s a grand prize?? I will try to think of others!!

Laura has announced her live auction a couple of days ago-they are having their second anniversary. I will miss it, but she is having an on-line one so that people can bid from home.

Yes, we definitley are having a dog & cat food and litter drive as well. We are looking into two different spots to have it. Both are great locations for different reasons.

Today Cryss and Ricardo are going to try to catch a dog that has severe TVT by the police station. If anyone would like to help, they are going at 1:00pm today. Contact Laura.

I wish them the best of luck and wish I could help out. I'm glad this dog will get the care and medical attention it needs with their help!!

Thank you guys!!!
