Happy was found on the side of the road in Irving TX by a valet who worked for the Four Seasons Hotel. She stopped and picked him up. When she got to work, she asked if she could take him to a vet and was told she could not as she needed to work. They called Animal Control who came out and scanned for a microchip; there was none.
A patron coming in to enjoy a spa day over heard what was happening. She asked what would be done with the dog if taken in by animal control. They advised that due to injuries, he would be humanely euthanized. She said, no. She would take whatever she would have spent on her spa day getting the dog care and took him to her vet. There she met a friend of mine and together they took him to the emergency ER.
She called me (Trophy Club animals) as she is a close friend and knew I did rescue. We all put down credit cards to get basic care, pain meds, x-rays, etc. I began networking on all the Irving and area lost dog pages. The animal community stepped up and started helping. People were going to and calling groomers, apartment complexes, hotels in the area, gaining access to Nextdoor pages to try to find the owner. Someone posted a dog named Happy’s flyer (posted by Lost Dogs of Texas).
She had to take him out of the hospital because the daily costs are too high. We have an estimate for the surgery (about $2050). We have raised $150 and $200 in pledges. His vet bills are posted to the thread. We have searched the metroplex and this is the lowest cost estimate we have received.
We can do this!
