8/12/10 - Sometimes Boxer Luv has to send out a special plea because we simply don't have the funds to care for the medical needs of a particular dog. This 3 month old pup is at Animal Care & Control with a broken femur. She needs surgery to repair the leg and Boxer Luv just doesn't have the money to help her. We can only rescue her if we can raise the funds to cover the cost of her surgery.
She has been brought in off the streets of Phoenix with a broken Femur - identical to Uma and Darcy that were saved months ago. She will be euthanized without our help. Surgery is $3500, approximately, and there's 12 weeks of continual post op care and medical follow up for this type of injury. Based on our experiences with identical injuries/ surgeries with Uma, Darcy and Brie, we estimate our cost to treat, appropriately, to be nearly $5000. She is safe tonight and being kept comfortable at WACC. She is 3 months old and very sweet. She is unable to walk but desperately tries to get to anyone that goes to see her..
We're asking for donations. As you all know, we are a 501(c)3 thus donations may be fully tax deductible. Checks are okay and can be sent to the PO Box 47777 Phoenix, AZ 85068. If you, or anyone you know, needs to pay that way, please let us know tonight who and how much so that we can track commitments. This is a big, unplanned expense thus we would be unable to help her without the financial support being requested. Spread the word far and wide, please.. We only have a few hours in which to make this possible. Can you help us save her?


Update 8/16 - While we have not raised all of the needed funds, we did rescue this girl, now known as Xena (the warrior princess). Her leg has been reset and her pain is being managed. Please consider making a donation on her behalf.
