He had previously been rescued from an abusive situation and has had a couple homes since then through no fault of his own. Hopefully that is all in the past. He has had his hip surgery and is recovering nicely in his foster home. Homer came to us from a local animal control facility and is in need of a Femoral Head Ostectomy surgery to remove the ball of his femur bone which is broken off. The surgery is scheduled for Jan 22. Won't you please consider helping these two sweethearts start their new journey in life?! To sponsor Chico, click here. To sponsor Homer, click here.

The vet says it went very well and it's all fun and games from here for our 'Little Man' (as his fosters have been calling him). Well, he does have a recovery period first, but soon it will be all fun and games and boy is he ready for it. All in all, he is doing great and he has a wonderful family waiting to take him home. If you would like to help cover the cost of Pepper's surgery, please click here to sponsor Pepper. You can make a one time donation or a recurring donation, no amount is too small and your donation is tax-deductible.
Help Pepper... -- Wednesday June 11th, 2008
Pepper is scheduled for surgery on Thursday, June 19 (was scheduled for the 12th, but due to diarrhea starting the night before surgery, had to be postponed) to repair a broken femur in his left rear leg. Pepper is just 3 months old and his owners, not able to afford the surgery, were going to have him euthanized. Lucky for Pepper, his owners took him to a Happy Tails vet who contacted us to see if we could take him into our program. Pepper is not only adorable, but he is super sweet and very very smart. He is going to make someone very proud to be his new owners... In the meantime, we could really use your help in raising the funds needed for his surgery. Please click here to sponsor Pepper. You can make a one time donation or a recurring donation, no amount is too small and your donation is tax-deductible.
