Fundraiser: Muffin Needs Your Help

💜Meet MUFFIN💜 With every dog and family we help, Loves Dogs seeks to serve as the dog’s fiduciary, where the needs and the outcome of the dog come first, and that often means helping the dog remain in a loving home by offering financial assistance with triage treatment, veterinary care, food, and/or medication for owners who would otherwise be unable to afford them. The alternative of not providing this help often ends in an owner-surrender, which is heartbreaking for both the family and the dog, and it ultimately adds to the heavy, heavy burden of overcrowding that shelters and rescues operate under today. Muffin is one of those dogs, and she and her family need your help.

Muffin was hit by a car and her left rear paw and leg were severely injured. She did receive treatment initially, but the wound became infected. Today, she was seen by Hillman Veterinary Clinic in Pensacola. After examination, Dr. Hillman concluded that amputation is necessary to prevent the spread of the infection. We have the estimate ($864.36), and have included it below. Muffin’s surgery is scheduled for Monday, May 20, 2024, and ALL of the estimate must be paid in full before her surgery can begin. If you prefer to donate directly to Muffin’s care, you can connect directly with Hillman Veterinary Clinic by calling (850) 433-2812. When you call, please mention Kayla Hall and Muffin.

HUGE THANKS to EVERYONE who has shown BIG LOVE for sweet Muffin! It means the world to us AND her sweet family. This morning, our nonprofit paid an $800 deposit for Muffin’s necessary leg amputation because waiting would allow the infection to spread, and that wasn’t an acceptable option to us. We’re SO grateful for everything you’ve donated, and we need your continued help this week! Our goal is to raise a total of $1,000, so we have $890 to go! It takes a VILLAGE, and we believe God is working!
