These last couple months have been very challenging with cases we would never dream of experiencing.

We currently have 150 dogs and 30 puppies in our care.

Last year, we had over 20 cases of Parvo. The strength of the Parvo virus was ruthless and despite all intervention to help these puppets who had come from various horrible circumstance and conditions, we lost 7 pups, but rescued 13 of the 20 cases. This came a cost of a huge vet bill.

Nothing made us happier to see many of these babies go into good homes.

Sadly vet bills are ongoing and we have had to pay cash upfront for treatments, vaccinations, sterilisation and so on. This has not been easy.

We have put together various fund raisers and this is one we have particularly looked forward to, which despite numerous advertising on social media platforms it hasn’t been well supported.

The reviews have been spectacular and we put every effort into our fundraising and our raffle prizes.

So we will give this one more try, failing which we will have no choice to CLOSE our doors to new admissions of any sort until such time as we have reduced our vet bill considerably.
It is currently sitting at R75 000,00.

BITTEN BY VET BILLS

The Blue Bundu Brigade has served the community of greater Durban, KZN since February 2019.
We rescue, rehabiliate and rehome mostly puppies and dogs, but we have on more than several occasions assisted with kitten, cats and birds.

During the COVID PERIOD, DURBAN KZN LOOTING and KZN FLOODS our work has increased due to homes been lost, people emigrating, and people down sizing.

Unfortunately, donations are minimal due to the rising living costs in South Africa.

We have tried various fundraisers to try settle our vet bills.
When we take in pups and dogs, it comes at a cost.
These dogs usually come from poor informal settlements where the pups or dogs haven't received basic veterinary care.
Pups come to us very sick and we endeavor to do our very best to get them well and healthy before rehoming them.

Our pups usually suffer from an incredible overload of worm infestation often making them very ill, poor malnutrition, cocidia and parvo.
We have had pups with glaucoma resulting in blindness, removal of an eye due to an injury resulting in a severe eye infection, a rupture anterior cruciate ligament, fading puppy syndrome, megaoesophagus and the list goes on.

We ensure each pup and dog that comes into our care is fully vetted, sterilised and healthy before going to its new home.

There are times that people within the community ask for our assistance. We review each case and assist the best way we can. Often these requests are very sick or severely injuried pups or dogs.

We have had to close our doors to taking in any new strays as our vet bills are sitting at an all time high of R45 000,00.

Despite instituting this action, we have had two cases we were asked to assist with because no one else would help. A lactating mom and her pups of which two had already been removed. We were financially assisted with this case. Our second case was a malnutrished underweight dog who has a severe case of biliary. We were assisted with specialised dog food for this boy.

We are appealing for your help to donate whatever you are comfortable donating to assist us in settling our bills as much as possible.

By helping us, we can in turn help the animals that come into our care.

Every animal deserves a second chance in life. Their lives matter too!

We would truly appreciate your assistance.

Thanking you in advance.

Regards
THE BLUE BUNDU BRIGADE
