Many dogs need rescue and our new pupsters need vetting!

The last quarter of 2009 was an unbelievable one with so very many requests to take in dogs. 

We are trying our best to take in as many as possible.  We were able to send 25 to another rescue in California, but ended up with 39 new dogs in Lone Star.  Can you believe?  Thank goodness for all of our volunteers and for the wonderful people that help us at Deogi!  But, now, we're desperately needing to get them all vetted, through heartworm treatment and up for adoption.

On average, if nothing is wrong with the dog, we spend just under $275 for BASIC vetting.  I know it's a lot - but we do everything that we'd do for our own dogs - all shots, spay/neuter, test for heartworms, and especially test for kidney and liver disease. 

So, we're desperately needing help with these expenses now.  We are so unbelievably tapped out because of the economy - adoptions are down, surrenders are at an all time high and donations are significantly under what they normally are.

We are going to just take this one step at a time.  Please help us get these babies ready for a new home.  Here are just a few needing help!

We desperately need to get all of these babies vetted and up for adoption THIS month - yes in January.  Please help!

If you can help any of these babies, donations can be made via PAYPAL HERE.

If you'd like to send a check, please go HERE to let us know.

Thanks to all of you for all of your wonderful support.
