A request for medical funding was received by SOS Beagle Rescue yesterday. A family saw an owner dragging a dog down the street, and stopped to offer them a ride. The person walking the dog said she was just watching it for someone and the owner said she was no longer able to care for it. The good samaritan’s
took the dog with the owner’s permission and took her to their vet.

The dog is a 9-10 yr. old female beagle who needs cruciate surgery and extensive dental work. Their estimate is $2800 and an all-breed rescue in their area offered $500 in assistance. SOS has exhausted our emergency care fund for the year and I told her I would post this to the beagle lists.

The good samaritans are on a tight budget, with the addition of their son, daughter-in-law and 7 month old baby living with them. They are determined to see that this girl gets the care she needs but is hoping
for some assistance. They will give Lady a permanent home with them.

I have forwarded them links to all the organizations that help with rescued pets emergency care, but since it is the end of the year, their budgets may well have been exhausted as well.

I have posted Lady’s picture at www.sosbeagles.org/lady.jpg.

If anyone would like to help, the dog will be cared for at :
