Neutered, Male

HELLO!  MY NAME IS NIBS. I’VE BEEN LIVING IN A SMALL CAGE AT AN ANIMAL HOSPITAL FOR OVER 6 MONTHS BECAUSE MY ELDERLY MOMMY HAD TO GO INTO A NURSING HOME AND EVEN THOUGH SHE LOVES ME VERY MUCH, SHE COULD NOT TAKE ME WITH HER.

I’M VERY GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AND I DON’T EVEN CHASE THE CAT! I’M 10 YEARS OLD BUT I HAVE PLENTY OF ENERGY AND I’M ALREADY HOUSEBROKEN! MY FUR IS SOFT AND MY EYES ARE BRIGHT AND MY FOSTER DADDY SAYS I ALWAYS LOOK LIKE I’M SMILING!

I LOVE CHEWING ON RAWHIDES, TAKING WALKS IN THE YARD AND I’M AN EASY-GOING PUP. I SHOULDN’T BLOW MY OWN HORN, BUT I REALLY AM A GOOD, SWEET DOG. IT’S NOT MY FAULT MY MOMMY HAD TO LEAVE ME.   I’M LONELY WITHOUT HER.  CAN’T YOU PLEASE TAKE ME HOME? IF YOU’RE INTERESTED IN ME PLEASE COMPLETE THE ADOPTION APPLICATION TODAY AND I PROMISE YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED!

6/9/09 Baby
Funds needed to raise: $2,000

6-25-09
Funds raised to date:$165.00

Baby was born 12/25/1999 A Christmas Baby. I got her from a friend 8 weeks later to give to my Mother as a gift. My Mother had Kidney failure and was on dialysis.  I wanted her to have a dog for company, for I had to work all day and I didn't want her  to be alone all day long. They were meant for each other. They got along so well, there was no separating them. My Mother pass away three years later and Baby became my dog and we became inseparable . Baby means a lot to me. She reminds me of all the good times we spent with Mom. I found out last week that Baby has a large growth in her abdomen area next to her spleen and liver that needs to be removed or she won't make it.

The Vet said the surgery would be around 2000 dollars and I asked him if I could make payments for I didn't have the money up front and he said no. I begged him and he still said no. I just don't know what to do, I'd hate to think that Baby might die because of my inability to pay for the surgery up front. I would be so heart broken. she means the world to me.  Baby loves squeaky toys. If there are no squeaks in it she wont play with it. She greets me at the door every night when I get in from work. She'll hear my key in the lock and where ever she is  she comes running right to the door.  she'll be smiling and wagging her tail. I love that affection. I would be lost without it. Please help.

2-10-09  KAYLIE

 

SURGERY NEEDED:
ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY

 

FUNDS NEEDED TO RAISE:  $4,OOO

Kaylie is a very sweet and playful 15-month-old Australian Kelpie. She was recently adopted into a loving home from an animal shelter in Maryland after being in shelter care for over 10 months. Kaylie was not treated kindly when she was a young puppy, and suffered an injury to her right elbow before coming to the shelter. This injury has damaged the growth plate in her elbow joint and surgery is required in order for Kaylie to be able to walk, run and play without being in pain. Kaylie has been given a very good prognosis because she is so young and still has good range of motion in her right elbow. However, the surgery needs to be done as soon as possible in order to prevent the damage from getting worse and eventually costing Kaylie the use of her right front leg.
