Doxie Rescue of Bucks County & NJ hasn't added a story.
The story of Honey has been filled with heartbreaking twists and turn that began before she even crossed our threshold here at DRBC. A stray that no one looked for, she was quickly placed on the euthanasia list. But something about her look and her description [doxie mix] touched us and the quest to save her began.
We had only till Friday to get her out of the GA shelter, but rescues run on Sat…we conquered that problem. Then another rescue wanted to step in, OK, no wait…she is heartworm positive…would we still help? Hummmm, really? Of course we would, we had made the original commitment.
It took another rescue with GA licensing and yet another with transport capability to free Honey from the shelter, but the drama does not end there. On her trip North we learned that she is with puppies! Not something you want for a heartworm positive dog or her pups.
Upon arrival it was clear the picture we receive was at a great angle. Honey is very thin. She was loaded with fleas….and fleas lead to parasites, so we have tape and whip worms. We ran bloodwork and learned she is anemic from the flea and parasitic infestation. Yes, she is heartworm positive and very, very pregnant. We also took the time to run an ECG and learned her heart is compromised from the heartworm involvement.
So where are our concerns and how does the DRBC Gang fit into all this? So glad you asked.
Honey will need special attention as she delivers, nurses and raises this litter. Then she will need heartworm treatment, which is very expensive and follow up cardiac care, also expensive. And we have to raise the litter; more expensive than you might think, especially as they have received no pre-natal care. You must see the need for your help; it is critical.
As always, our budget is tight. This little girl will need so much but is so worth it. So sweet, so loving – she is unbelievable and worth every penny and then some. The total cost will run the rescue ~$5500. We, and more importantly Honey and her pups are counting on your kindness.
Can you help them receive this desperately needed care? We sure hope you can. Prayers and well wishes are great, but they do not pay the bills. Please step up and make a difference. This little family to be so desperately needs you. This will be the first step on a road to what we hope will be a full recovery for Honey. Please help us reach our goal of $5500; you can make a difference.
