As you know from our posts recently we have been inundated with new dogs in the driveway this winter, all of them in very poor shape suffering from mange, most of them from the government shelter or other local rescuers, and it is not showing any signs of slowing down but our funding is slowing down and we are struggling to keep up.  Every single day new dogs come, every single day the team is out trying to treat as many dogs as possible for the epidemic of mange we seem to be seeing.

Zeno the Great is one of the recently dumped dogs, found in the driveway with a severe back paw injury, we brought him in to have his back leg amputated as the crush injuries to his paw were to severe to fix.

 Zeno is one of the lucky ones but we are reaching a time where the next Zeno may not be so lucky, our funds are all but depleted and we are dangerously close to having to turn away any new dogs that need help. 

We battle the social media algorithms constantly but cannot seem to get our posts shown to a wider audience, we have tried and tried to grow our audience in the United States without success, we have shaved our budget back to the absolute limit, there is no more saving to be made without completely closing the clinic and reducing food rations.

 We need your help to turn this around, we know that the cost of living is not getting any lower, we know that many just no longer have any disposable income left after paying the bills, we lost over $80,000 in grant funding in 2024 with no hope of 2025 being any better, we hate having to beg but we have NO other options.

Please help us, please help dogs like Zeno the Great.
