This $1,000 grant helped to ease the financial burden of Dudley's medical expenses. We are beyond thankful. With this assistance, we were able to make sure Dudley had all of the care he required and we did not have to take the $1,000 difference away from other animals needing veterinary care.

This generous donation was used to assist with Dudley’s throat surgery. Dudley is a bulldog mix who was surrendered to a local vet for euthanasia. His previous owner had determined that Dudley was not of “breeding stock” and requested euthanasia. The veterinarian refused and the owner agreed to surrender Dudley to our rescue. Dudley was suffering from skin infections, eye infections and ear infections and was struggling to breathe. Dudley’s veterinary costs have been astronomical; the throat surgery alone totaled $2,813.25. This $1,000 grant helped to ease the financial burden. We are beyond thankful. Dudley is still recovering from surgery, but should be available for adoption in 4-6 weeks (when his veterinarian is expected to clear him for adoption).
