Faith in this Community. Hope that together we can make this happen. We all, myself included, shake our heads snd silently judge when we see “free puppies”. Get the dog fixed is what we say. I would like to talk about how getting a dog fixed is not as easy as it seems.
John has 2 large female farm dogs, given to him for help on the farm. It has been a year now. Those 10 # pups are now 45 # ‘s and growing. Need to be spayed. Easy right? I was asked to call area Vets for John to check dates, requirements, prices. After making calls to 8 area vets, I was speechless. $450 to $550 per dog for the required shots, medicines, and spay. John does not have the money and never will. Without Spay for these 2 female large breed dogs, there will be 2 litters of puppies in the fall. We have co tacked every resource we know of. We are asking if everyone can donate something we will make arrangements and transport. Please. Chatham. Help a struggling neighbor. Help be part of the solution.
