We often have dogs that have expensive medical conditions or circumstances that require them to receive extra care and attention.

We try our hardest to provide our dogs with whatever it is they need, although sometimes it can become very costly. 

For example, the cost of treating a heartworm positive dog can range anywhere from $150 - $300 per dog.

The following are dogs that need sponsorship and/or they are "special needs" dogs:

Gabby arrived at K9 Stray Rescue with a broken front leg. She has been under veternairy care with us for the last 2 months. Our vet is doing everything he can to save Gabby's leg. She is 4 - 6 years old. She is currently staying in a foster home with other dogs and cats, and she has completely settled in and adjusted to this new environment. She is a great dog with wonderful house manners and we just don't understand how she ended up homeless and in this situation. She is affectionate and connecting with everyone she meets. If you would like to donate for Gabby's medical needs please send donation to the address on the bottom of the page. Little Gabby is very thankful for all the people who care about her and are trying to make her life better.  

 

ADOPTED!! Lucy arrived at K9 Stray Rescue from Shiawassee Animal Control just before she was to be euthanized because no owner claimed her. Lucy was spayed, heartwom tested and updated on vaccines on Sep. 30th, 2008. Sadly to say when the heartworm test was ran the results came back positive. Once she recovers from her surgery she will go through the heartworm treatment and stay with us at K9 through her recovery period. Heartworm treatment is very expensive and we currently have 4 dogs undergoing treatment. We are accepting donations to help us cover the expenses for our 4 heartworm positive furry  friends.

 

Bo came into K9 Stray Rescue with Lucy from Shiawasse Animal Control. He is a very handsome boy. Bo's story is the same as Lucy's. When he was neutered, heartworm tested, and updated on vaccines, his heartworm test came back positive. Bo also has an injury to one of his eyes that needs to be dealt with once his recovery from the heartwom treatment is complete. His veterinary care is going to be expensive and we are collecting donations to help us ensure Bo has a good life.

 

 

ADOPTED!! Hillary is a 5 - 7 year old Cocker Spaniel. She came to K9 Stray Rescue with a Cockapoo friend. These two were pulled from Tuscola County Animal Control. Sadly to say, Hillary's friend came in with so many health problems that the humane thing to do was let her go. Hillary seemed to be in better shape, but just like Lucy and Bo she tested heartworm positive while at the vet to be spayed and updated on vaccines. Hillary is staying in a foster home and she has completed phase 1 of her heartworm treatment. She is a very sweet girl and is expected to make a full recovery once her treatment is complete.
