Remember our German Shepherd, Reggie? The one who had his leg amputated? After battling an infection at his amputation site, he was neutered this past week and is now ready to find a home to call his own! Reggie is a year old. In his foster home, he did growl at the cat. He was around other dogs previously, but would definitely need a meet and greet with any other dogs. Like a typical shepherd, Reggie does have a scary bark but he is a teddy bear! We are open 12-4pm Wednesday through Saturday. Stop by and meet him this week!

Special Needs #Giving Tuesday Network for Good

Bambi is a sweet fourteen month old Boxer/Lab mix. Bambi was hit by a car in the care of previous owner, and, did not receive necessary veterinarian care. Now she is at the Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County in Decatur, Illinois, awaiting surgery for amputation of her right front leg. Neurological damage cannot be repaired, and, during the length of time she did not receive medical attention, she tried to chew her foot off. She is currently on pain medication and daily bandage change while waiting for scheduled surgery.

Bambi is one of four special needs dogs currently at our facility. Another is Heath, a young, chocolate lab male, waiting for his scheduled surgery at SportsVet in Savoy. Heath needs to have the femoral head removed on his left hip. Heath is another hit-by-car tragedy not receiving veterinary care. He is currently on pain medications. Then, we have Rebecca, a 7 year old Maltese, mostly blind from cataracts. We would like to be able to take her to an ophthalmologist to see if she is a candidate for cataract removal. And, last, but not least is Scooby, a two year old rat terrier mix, that came in mostly blind.

These special dogs would really appreciate any monetary donations to the Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County to help provide for their surgeries and care. You can donate through Network for Good #Giving Tuesday starting now. The Humane Society of Decatur and Macon County is a no-kill animal shelter/rescue that is mainly volunteers, and, depends entirely on private donations and our fundraising activities.

Can you help us help these special dogs?
