Maya
Maya is a sweet little Dobergirl approximately 3 years old. She was
found as a stray in Maryland and brought to the local shelter where
Doberman Assistance,
Rescue & Education (DARE) was contacted and she
was placed in a foster home. In addition to coming in heartworm positive
and requiring treatment for that, after about 3 weeks she developed
Pyometra, which is a potentially life-threatening uterine infection.
With her heart weakened by the heartworms, dehydration, and the
infection spreading through her system, there was concern as to her
ability to even withstand the surgery. Surgery took several hours and
she spent the next two days and nights in intensive care.
Since a rescue group's funds are always severely limited, help is needed
to cover Maya's extensive medical bills. She is doing well now and will
be ready soon to be adopted to a loving family.

Updates:
March 1, 2004 - Our friends at DAR&E let us know that the adorable Maya had a setback this past week when it was discovered that a particularly resistant heartworm was still with her. This probably happened when one of her treatments had to be delayed for her delayed a few weeks because of the pyometra surgery. This girl still need our help, and then some! Please check this week's auctions where we will have several great items listed for this beautiful girl!
