St. Martin’s Animal Foundation: COVID-19 Operation Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

The donation was used for our outreach program, Puppies Without Borders. We rescue battered puppies and street dogs from Mexico every week. We used the funding for vet care and cancer treatments.

It helped tremendously, especially for Stormy, who had just delivered puppies and had a huge tumor on her uterus. Without veterinary help, she and her puppies would have died.

How many pets did this grant help?

This grant helped four dogs survive.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

Stormy is a large Doberman mix who was wandering the streets of Tijuana, very pregnant and ready to deliver. Sadly, Stormy had a huge tumor that was infected and getting worse. Thanks to your grant, we were able to take her off the streets, start her with her chemotherapy, and have foster families care for her puppies. She is a gorgeous dog and Storm and her puppies are now thriving and in secure homes.
