#SeventeenPuppies plus one!

We received a call in from a person that needed our help! She lacked funding to spay and neuter her pets which resulted in 18 puppies from two for her dogs…yes 18! She was ill and financially couldn’t afford to care of these beautiful sweet pets. So we hopped into our van and with the help of our volunteers, we sprang into action! In just the nick of time too…upon their arrival to our facility they were diagnosed  with roundworms and coccidia, under weight and had been consuming plastic. Our medical team started a treatment plan and supportive care for all the puppies and within a week they were doing well enough to be spayed and neutered. We were also determined to stop the cycle of unwanted pets and altered the remainder of her dogs utilizing our spay and neuter voucher program. All puppies were adopted and are in loving homes enjoying life, as it should be…

Our community embraced these babies, helped us with some of our cost and shared them to family and friends to help to place them! Visit their story on www.Facebook.com/rvhsadopt enter #seventeen puppies! We have a great community!
