It takes a village! Our free clinic on Grand Turk is over, and the team is heading home. I am so grateful to this amazing group of selfless individuals for a wonderful, yet often sad, week of helping animals. We will report the final numbers as soon as we sleep!

Hump Day Grand Turk 3- we thought it would be a slow one but it was NOT! We are up to 8 cases of TVT- transmissible venereal disease. 😢 We only had 4 last year all week! We are continuing to do everything we can for every animal we see. We are grateful to our partner-TCSPCA- and the many wonderful volunteers on this island!

Day 2 of Grand Turk 3:
This can be a tough place. While it is rewarding to help all the animals we do (48 today), it’s also very sad seeing those that we know will never have a home, never have a bed or a toy, never sleep indoors, never know love by a human. And there are just so many of them here. Here are some of them….

Day 1 of the Grand Turk clinic is history! The first day is always hectic with everyone trying to get a routine established. We did 26 surgeries and 24 appointments- not bad for 2 docs and their (amazing) team! We saw a lot of sadness today- 4 cases of TVT, a street dog with a badly fractured jaw, and several euthanasias.

We were SUPPOSED to spend most of today setting up our pop-up vet clinic! Instead, we were sidelined by this adorable baby donkey, which was born right next to our villa last night. We brought his momma carrots, apples, half a pumpkin, and a bucket of water. She clearly loves him so much! We do too!❤️ On a less cute note, our clinic starts at 8 am tomorrow.

4 Leaf Rover is headed back to Grand Turk next week for a free spay/neuter and medical clinic. It will be our third time traveling to this island with no vet care. The locals have organized a team of trappers to target the feral dogs. Wish us luck!🍀 Stay tuned for updates on our trip.

This is the story of “Lucky, “ a dog we rescued from the small island of Anguilla. He was truly a good dog who had bad luck! But not for long! You won’t believe what happened!

This is Jim. He is a young pup living on Grand Turk that presented to our free clinic for a neuter and veterinary care. He looked pretty healthy at first glance, but his exam revealed otherwise …..

Grand Turk 2 Completed! Thanks to Susan Blehr and the TCSPCA, Patsy & Marc, Liz & Ray, Claudia & Edgar, and the rest of the amazing volunteers of Grand Turk for facilitating a wonderful week! They donated their week trapping and transporting animals and assisting us in every way possible. The islanders donated our lodging, some of our meals, and brought us homemade snacks. It takes a village to pull off such a large mission, and we are truly grateful all those who helped !
