Oregon Dog Rescue: Sponsor a Pet Grant Report

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

See below.

All thanks to your grant, we are putting the money towards her upcoming visit taking place next week. Once we figure out what medical condition is causing problems, we can get her the treatment she needs in order for Tammy to begin her next chapter. Once we have an understanding of what is ailing her and a treatment plan, she will then become available for adoption and find her new forever home. We so appreciate your care and advocacy for rescue animals!

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

We have a lovely 8-year-old Shih Tzu mix named Tammy who recently joined us from a high-[intake] shelter in Porterville, California. We have been taking her to our vet for testing on her eyes. At the time of examination, cloudy corneas were noted with corneal edema conjunctiva present. Standard treatment does not seem to be relieving her symptoms and our vet is recommending that she is to be seen by an eye specialist. Tammy is not available for adoption yet and we are waiting for her glamour photo shoot until her eyes improve.
