Hatcher says thanks!

Hatcher wanted me to thank the people that sent the money for his bed! He has rescue pending, but tested positive for coccidia so can’t go on transport until that’s cleared up. In the meantime, he’s loving napping on dog beds.

Update on Max…he’ll need surgery

Max update from the vet: He has anal tone! Not sure how with no deep pain. I think worth stabilizing him with surgery and seeing if he can get better. He is a sweet, strong boy. Worst case scenario, he would need a cart. Estimate for surgery is $4,000. My gut tells me to give…
