Last weekend, Nov. 21-22, many of you were following the saga of an emaciated dog on the streets of Alton. We are happy to report that, thanks to dozens of concerned animal lovers, she is safe. It was obvious she had puppies somewhere but they could not be found. Special thanks to Lisa and Ashley who transported her to Horseshoe Lake Animal Hospital). She spent several days at Horseshoe Lake Animal Hospital and was fed small amounts of food to get her body accustomed to digesting again.
Great news... look who is already gaining weight (six pounds) in two days!!!! HUGE thanks to everyone at Horseshoe Lake who always provides the absolute best care for Partners animals. We are still waiting to hear more about her heartworm status and she's not totally out of the woods yet, but fingers crossed she'll get better day after day.
Please help us with the cost of her care (dubbed "Skinny Minnie" by the staff at HSLAH). Payments can be made to the hospital directly by calling (618) 344-7949. Paypal donations can be made at https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr…
Minnie went into a foster home on Weds. so she could spend a very Happy, warm Thanksgiving. She spent time on the couch enjoying her day. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has reached out to send their thoughts and prayers to Minnie. This is truly what rescue is about - working together, for the greater good, and putting the animals first. Bravo to the team of people who brought her to safety.
