Dogs Who Need You most
We cannot stress enough how much we need YOU right now. We are currently overwhelmed with escalating vet bills, an influx of owner surrenders, and urgent calls from shelters pleading with us to help save dogs on the brink.
Meet some of our priority pups who need your help the most:
Avalon
Avalon is currently still with one of our shelter partners, but we’re paying for her medical treatment until she’s healthy enough to travel to TLC and find her forever home.
We believe she was either stepped on or hit by a car as a puppy. In either case, she’s had some major trauma, to the point that two of her legs are deformed and amputation is possible.
She’s currently undergoing physical therapy to strengthen her legs and ensure she’s healthy enough to travel.
Chicken Bone
Chicken Bone is a resilient ~6 month old pup. He is in foster care with us and is currently adoptable.
Before he arrived here, we believe he may have been caught in a bear trap, as the bones in one of his paws was severed clean from the wrist joint.
Despite being in a splint to try to heal it, he wouldn’t even try to walk on it and it merely dragged along behind him. So he could have a better quality of life, the decision was made to amputate the leg.
This doesn’t stop him though - he runs and plays and doesn’t let the fact that he’s without one limb slow him down!
Snow Cone
In a heartbreaking twist of fate, Snow Cone had a freak accident that broke a growth plate in his shin. This is a very common injury in puppies, but this time it was serious enough that he required surgery.
Our partners at United Vision Pet Partners performed the successful operation, but it was costly - nearly $7,000. He was just a 4 month old puppy when he came to TLC in early October, but he’s already stolen our hearts with his energy, puppy cuddles, and endless curiosity.
Once he’s fully healed from the surgery, he’ll be able to run, play, and snuggle with no pain, just like any other dog.
Snow Cone has been happily adopted, but our commitment to giving him the best life continues even after he leaves our care.
Extra TLC
We’re dedicated to improving the lives of dogs in need, including those with medical issues requiring surgery or special care.
While TLC covers care costs, we rely on community support to continue providing these services and give dogs a better future.
We're at a critical point. We need YOUR help, whether it's a donation, sharing this post, or spreading the word.
Your contributions, no matter how small, can make a life-changing difference for these deserving dogs.
Please consider helping us stay afloat and continue our life-saving work.
Even if you can't donate, sharing this post to spread the word will be immensely helpful.
Thank you for your continued support, we're incredibly grateful for this compassionate community.
Together, we can help these dogs towards a brighter, healthier future.
We will be sharing updates on each of these pups as they become available.
