WE HAVE ARRIVED!!!!

These are some of the dogs that came from the recent puppymill seizure that NAFA, along with two other rescues, is helping to house, care for, and ultimately adopt out.


Female Yorkie Mix, approximately 4 months of age. She was flea and tick infested, but has received two baths and preventative. She tested negative for heartworms and received her first set of vaccinations and heartworm preventative. She has minor eye infection in her left eye and has sore pads from standing on wire. She will receive antibiotics for the next several days. She will be groomed in the next several days. She is naturally a little frightened but is warming up to humans very quickly.

8 week old male Chihuahua / Dachshund Mix. He has a wonderful disposition. He was filthy, had excessive nail growth and sore pads. There was some minor tearing from living in filthy conditions. He received his first set of vaccinations, deworming and his first heartworm preventative. He received a good bath and flea/tick preventative.

She is approximately 6 years of age. She is completely matted to the skin, with hair like concrete. She will be groomed tomorrow. She has a sweet disposition but is quite afraid of people. She has both ear and eye infections and is receiving treatment for both. Her feet are sore and splayed from standing on wire. She has received her first set of vaccinations, tested negative for heartworms and has started on heartworm medication and a general dewormer. Her gentle and frightened demeanor will require a quite home with patient and loving family.

She is a very small Boston Terrier and due to deliver puppies within the next few days. She will remain in foster care until her puppies are born and at least 8 weeks of age. She was anemic and shows signs of serious flea and tick infestation. Her feet are sore and splayed from standing on wire. She is being treated for ear mites and eye infection. She was given her first set of vaccinations and will be heartworm tested in the next couple of days. Our volunteers are working hard to keep her stress level at a minimum.

These are just a few of the animals that came from this awful place! I hope that you will keep checking in with us to see the rest!!!

Hopeful & Positive,

Tut
