Canines in the Clinic


Some of the dogs we rescue have severe illnesses or other serious medical issues that are much more costly than the money brought in by adoption fees. To help nurse these dogs through their medical needs so that they can eventually become healthy and adoptable, we must find sponsors to help with the costs. Please read their stories and consider becoming an angel that these Rat Terriers so desperately need. Canine Clinic Donors are listed on our Donor Recognition Board with donations of $50 or greater denoted by our clinic icon Canine Clinic Pal. Also, please pay a visit to our heartworm hero Heartworm Library heartworm hero to learn about Ratties needing Heartworm Treatment.

NOTE: In the event that donation amounts are raised in excess of the required vetting for any particular clinic dog, the overage will be used to assist other current or future New Rattitude clinic dogs. All clinic funds stay within the clinic specifically for dogs with special financial health needs.

No one knows how Eddie Blue got his wrist so badly broken. He was found in a shelter but couldn't tell us his history. We searched hard for a vet who was confident of being able to save his leg at an affordable price, and found a tender-hearted angel who agreed to cap the charge at $1200 (less than half of other estimates). We already have a commitment for $500 towards that fee, leaving us with $700 to raise to help Eddie Blue be able to run and play again like any other 2-year-old. Because time is of the essence to get this fixed before the bones start fusing wrong, we need to proceed with surgery, and we're crossing our fingers that donations come in to fund it. Can you help?

Jackie
Even after being rescued from a high kill shelter at just 2 weeks old, Jackie's life still isn't safe. She is gravely ill with aspiration pneumonia, secondary to the aggressive strain of bordetella with which that shelter is infected. Her mother had been so emaciated and sick from the same bordetella that she was unable to continue nursing her pups, which denied Jackie and her siblings essential immunities. Jackie is also being treated for two types of intestinal parasites. Her vet bills for care, X-rays, life-saving medicines, and nebulization treatments have passed $560. But little Jackie, now just over a month old, is a fighter and is holding her own. Will you help New Rattitude save tiny Jackie?
