Please help Sophie and her friends!
UPDATE: A medical foster has been found, thank you for all of the offers. If you are still interested in fostering there are three heartworm positive dogs at the shelter who need to find fosters in order to be treated. And thank you to everyone who has donated and/or shared this post. We couldn't do it without the support we receive from the community. ❤️
If you donated to the go fund me originally posted, the shelter in Humboldt, Iowa reached out and forwarded the donations that they had received as well as a donation from the director. 🥰
Sophie and her other shelter friends need your HELP! Sophie was turned over to our animal control department after being found injured on Highway 299 due to falling out of/from a vehicle. Sophie has a fractured jaw, the gingiva of her upper palate (roof of the mouth) has separated exposing the nasal cavity to the mouth. In addition to these injuries, she has suffered a life of neglect. The condition of her ears suggest long-term chronic ear infections resulting in polyps. She has some significant dental disease, she is unspayed and has a mammary mass. She is somewhere between 10 and 12 years old and has a lot of life, s***k and love to give. Donations are needed to help fund her path to recovery.
Donations can be made to the Shelter's Emergency Medical Fund (SEMF) which is managed by Friends for Life Animal Rescue via mail at PO Box 962, Eureka, CA 95502; online at www.dogrescuers.org via PayPal please specify donations are for the SEMF
Any funds collected during this campaign that are not spent treating Sophie will be used to treat her other shelter companions who are in need of medical procedures such as heartworm treatment, orthopedic surgeries, and other procedures that exceed the $300 maximum allowed by the county budget.
