IT'S SUMMER AND HERE IN THE VALLEY THAT MEANS HOTTER THAN USUAL HIGH TEMPATURES!!!
Remember to take extra precautions with your beloved pets during these extremely HOTTT months and educate those who may not know what this heat can do to fur-babies
The Faces of Heartworm Disease
(From left to right) Tina, Yayu, Kaylie and Ellie Mae 
Above are just a few fur babies that have had there heartworm treatments and have now found their forever homes.
​There is hope  and we will never let a positive result decide the fate of these beautiful animals.
​
We dedicate a lot of our time to caring for our foster animals and that means we go that extra mile for our rescue babies. Heartworms are not only too common in the Rio Grande Valley but they are deadly if left untreated. All our rescues are tested for heartworms upon intake into foster care and we can only hope for a negative result but, a lot of the time they test positive... With a positive result comes the need for treatment and we are ready to get them the medicine they need to get rid of the disease they have. The treatment consists of a series of injections, some cage rest, time at the vet and after they remain on antibiotics and steroids. All of this treatment comes at a price and we pay out of pocket. Donations help but along with the growing number of positive results and other emergency medical expenses we can always use the help.

Before & Afters

Samantha has come a long way since she first came to us a few months ago. Look how beautiful she is now. Samantha is looking for the perfect family to call her own.
Treasure was found abandoned, covered from head to toe with ticks, and so anemic we were not sure if she was going to make it but, we were not giving up!

 Treasure was rushed to the vet and received emergency medical treatment for her condition. After her ordeal we were dedicated to her recovery and with the help of a foster family she was slowly getting back her spunk. She was now on the path to her second chance she deserved!

After a full recovery she found herself
​in the arms of her new family.
