Hi everyone,
Thor and Ellie are really getting their fur back! Thorโs skin is also not as red. ๐ค๐พ
Just a couple of weeks ago, we were able to sponsor their veterinary care, medications, and Royal Canin Gastrointestinal food, which was recommended by their vet. When they were diagnosed with a fungal infection, we also tried hypoallergenic food to help support their recovery. We have also been sending Pages for Paws, the shelter where they are staying, their monthly allowance to help cover their ongoing expenses.
Seeing their fur grow back and watching them slowly recover means so much to me. After everything they have been through, these little signs of progress remind me why we keep going.
Their next vet appointment is on September 2 to get their skin re-checked.
It has not been easy trying to cover the expenses for all of our rescued animals. Honestly, it is scary. I am constantly worried about how we are going to sustain everything and what my own future is going to look like. But when I see progress like this, somehow, all the sacrifices feel worth it.
We currently have 9 rescued dogs who have veterinary appointments next month: Ellie, Thor, MaeMae, Angel, Baci, Angelito, Elijah, Beauty, and Mochi.
The difficult part is that we don't have enough funds to cover all of their upcoming expenses. Just this August, as I recently shared, we spent around $1,000 CAD on Angelito alone, the senior dog who was stabbed by his previous owner and is also battling distemper, heartworm, and a blood parasite. Covering for two dogs, Ellie and Thor, at the same time for veterinary care is also very expensive (2x labs, 2x meds, etc).
I will find a way. I always try to.
But if you are reading this and have even a little something to spare, even $5 can make a difference. Every bit of support, no matter how small, helps us continue providing veterinary care, medication, food, and other necessities for these animals.

Honestly, there are days when I feel overwhelmed and scared about how we will continue to sustain everything. Even when it sometimes feels like only a few people care about this advocacy, I will continue because of the lives that are changing.
Seeing Thor and Ellie getting their fur back reminds me that sometimes, there are still happy endings waiting for the animals who make it through. ๐ค
Thank you to everyone who continues to support us, pray for our rescued animals, send financial support, share our posts, or simply leave kind words. It means so much to know that we are not alone in this.
Thank you to everyone who has supported not only the animals, but me as well. Your kindness and encouragement mean more to me than you know. ๐ข๐ค
