Cuba Kitties, and a Few Pups Too!

After an amazing week in Cuba we are very excited to share our friend Sarah’s (of Sarah Beth Photography) post on our trip together to meet with a Cuban animal rescue and work together to better the lives of dogs and cats in need! We walked away so impressed with APAC’s dedication to Cuban animals, and we look forward to helping them accomplish their goals of spaying, neutering and vetting the animals of Varadero, Cuba.

So how can you help? Medication is the biggest need right now and we are collecting Frontline, Revolution, and Nexgard so APAC can treat fleas, ticks, ear mites, skin infections and prevent the all too common, but preventable heartworm. Want to donate any of the above meds? Email us at Development@PetProjectRescue.com

Darbie the Dog’s Second Chance in Life!

Our monthly donors are truly saving lives, like the life of our senior gal Darbie! And that is why we are so excited to be able to announce that our MATCH for ALL NEW MONTHLY DONORS will continue until we reach $500 in new sustaining donors! With just $150 to go to meet our goal please consider becoming a monthly donor at just $5 or $10 a month to ensure Pet Project Rescue can rescue more special needs dogs and cats!

Darbie arrived to PPR as a round ball of sadness. She was 22lbs, when her little Bichon body should have been 16 lbs! Her extra weight was causing her a great deal of knee pain, and she was miserable. She began peeing blood just a day after she arrived to us, and we rushed her to the vet for a full workup and xrays, where we discovered she had a painful bladder stone the size of a golf ball!! Our vets jumped to action to save Darbie and removed the stone with great success. She’s all healed up, feeling so much better, and now nearing her goal weight! This 12 year young gal is enjoying her strolls around the neighborhood and her new found health and happiness. Darbie will remain on C/D food for her bladder health, Rimadyl for her knees, and will need check ins and xrays about twice a year to assure she stays clear of future stones. Thankfully, this adorable gal got her second chance in life with PPR, and hopefully a forever home to call her own very soon. We would not be able to provide the costly emergency vet care needed for animals with special needs if it was not for our amazing monthly donors.

When you become a monthly donor today your $5 will become $10, $10 will become $20, and so on, thanks to our matching gift from Dog Of A Good Society! PetProjectRescue.com/donate\

Darbie thanks YOU for giving her the chance to heal and know the love a forever home that she hopes she will find very soon!
