NEWS FLASH!! Click this link: |
"BUFFY'S" STORY! This is Buffy, brought to the Chula Vista Animal Care Facility in April of 2007 as a stray. This picture was taken in June of 2007 after 6 weeks of treatment. As awful as she looks here you can imagine what she looked like before treatment. At the ripe old age of 2 months old, (and barely 3 pounds) she had to be sedated in order to clip off her matted coat (what was left) and treat her infected skin. She was a mess to say the least and the smell was horrible. We expect about 1,000 of these success stories Buffy suffers from demadex, the mite that causes what is commonly referred to as "the red mange". Left untreated this mite can reek havoc on a dog and cause a secondary infection that can be fatal.

One day while at the shelter to pick up another puppy to foster, I saw her in the medical room and felt so bad for
her I said "this ones coming with me too"! Two puppies really are easier than one. So off we went and she has
been with me ever since. See what Buffy looks like one year later at Pet Fest on June 21st. She will be walking in the Doggie Dash walk/run to raise money for all the animals out there that need our help. If you would like to sponsor her in her effort to raise money ... Contact us! THANK YOU H.E.A.R.T. donors!!"
