Danny’s story is shocking. Fortunately, it has a happy ending. But what’s most disturbing about these cases of animal abuse and neglect is how common they are. Together, let’s change that.
We were contacted about this sweet shepherd mix pup who was brought into a rural animal control facility with a collar embedded deeply and painfully into his neck.
Likely, it had been put on when he was smaller, and because the puppy was neglected and left outside to fend for himself, was never taken off as he grew. Danny needed urgent medical attention.
This is why you are so important. For defenseless animals like Danny, your compassionate gift helps:
- Stop neglect and abuse
- Heal abused dogs and cats
- Provide care and shelter
- Find adoptive families
- Provide spay and neuter services
- And much more!
Luckily, because of friends like you, we got to Danny just in time.
We welcomed Danny with open arms, and as soon as he arrived at the shelter, we rushed him straight into surgery to clip the strangling collar, gently clean his wound, and start him on antibiotics for the infection.
Danny was free. Free from the heavy chain around his neck, free from neglect, and free to find love. As soon as his neck and heart had healed enough, sweet Danny went home with his new loving family, wagging all the way.
My friend, your continued support is needed now more than ever. As a no-kill organization, AHS cares for animals as long as it takes to find their forever family. It’s a lot of work, and it can be taxing on our resources, but the animals entrusted into our care deserve it.
And, with the difficult challenges that COVID-19 has brought, our work is even more critical, as we give additional assistance to struggling pet owners. In this time of hardship, your donation enables us to provide the resources that keep pets with the families who love them.
Please walk alongside us. Today, your urgent, tax-deductible gift has the power to change a life forever. Just ask Danny.
Warmest Regards,
