of the Small Paws Rescue Newsletter, including fostering and adoption information. Dear Small Pawsers,
Small Paws Rescue Online Newsletter, especially to those of
you who may have recently seen us on December
11, 2012, on Fox and Friends in New York City ,
or on
Animal Planet on "Dogs 101.", or you may have read about us in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Find Your Happiness,
101 Stories about Finding Your Purpose,
Passion and Joy . You also may have seen us on "Inside Edition" with Deborah Norville!
If you missed our previous newsletter, here it is.
We have a medical emergency for a little
Bichon named "Duke".
Duke is 8 years old
and his internal
organs
are trying to come
out of his back end.
"Perineal Hernias Explained
The anal region of a dog is known as the
perineum. Within the abdomen and pelvic cavities
are structural linings that provide support
and hold organs (intestines, rectum, prostate,
bladder) in place. When these organs are
able to protrude against that lining, or
if the pelvic diaphragm becomes structurally
lax, a perineal hernia develops."
Duke has a golf ball sized hernia that is
painful and needs to be repaired.
But they also have to find out what is causing
the hernia or it will come back,
So they have to do
an ultrasound of his abdomen
to see what is going
on.
The estimate for everything is for $1800.00
before our rescue discount of 20 % with Dr.
Zach Ricker, a Board Certified Surgeon at
Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists here in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Dr. Russell, here in Tulsa, found this hernia
this morning, and told me that we need a
surgeon.
I spoke to Zach earlier today and he said
we need to get this done as soon as we can.
We don't come and ask for help unless we
need it.
We need it.
Little Duke needs it.
I am happy to issue
all matching donation
challenges.
Help.
All My Love, Robin

>When these folks applied to adopt, and
we asked how their Bichon was killed by a
car, this was their response. We hear this
on an average of once a week.
(These are NOT Bichons
adopted from Small
Paws.)
PLEASE don't take
a chance with the
life
of your Bichon!
We do not adopt to
people who allow
their
dogs to run loose.

Subject: Re: Small
Paws Rescue
We had him for the last five years, He is
very obedient normally when we say "stay"
he will stop wherever he is, so some times
we are used to play with him in the yard
for he loves to run around the yard in circles,
during that time we did not put him on the
leash, this particular day he was not on
leash and did not yield to the command when
he saw some dog across the road. It took
off so suddenly the on coming driver did
not have time to stop the car. That is how
it happened.>

When I first saw this beautiful picture of
Cheri Sisco's "Humphrey", I thought
it was truly the epitome of what we do, and
why we do it. I wanted to use this black
and white picture of Humphrey, taken only
days before his death due to congestive heart
failure, to let those who may be new to Small
Paws, know what we do and why we do it. Without
Small Paws, Humphrey would have never known
love. He would have died in a kill shelter,
sick and alone. Because of Small Paws, and
Cheri Sisco, he lived, he loved, and he smiled.
