Holly
April, 2005

Holly is a 7 year old red Dobe living in New York with Susan. Holly has a rapidly growing tumor on her gums and her owner, Susan, could not afford the surgery to have it removed. Since the tumor was rapidly increasing in size the vet recommended immediate removal. Susan works at the vet clinic so she gets a discount. With this and the help rendered by SND, Holly was able to have the surgery that she needed.

Kayla is a gorgeous 10 year old Doberman living with her family in Pennsylvania. Recently, Kayla was attacked by a dog that her family is fostering and was badly injured. The family does not have the resources to pay for the intensive care that Kayla needs, as her "Dad" recently had surgery, himself, and since he does not have insurance, is having to foot the cost out of pocket.

Angel
May, 2005

Angel was a precious 10 1/2 year old living with Dorothy in Arizona. Recently, she stopped urinating and although several tests had been run, they were inconclusive. SND provided assistance with the tests and treatments that Angel needed, but sadly, her life could not be saved. While the UTI had cleared up she was still continually bleeding excessively to the point of anemia. When it became evident that it was the presence of a tumor combined with the vWd that was creating the problem Dorothy and the vet agreed that there was no solution. They agreed that Angel's quality of life had deteriorated and that she should be released. You can learn more and see some pictures by visiting Angel's Page.

Ivan

Ivan was a precious 1 year old red boy in a Georgia shelter. He was scheduled to go to Recycled Dobermans Rescue in Pennsylvania, but hours before his scheduled pick up the Atlanta volunteers got a call that he had been attacked and severely injured by other dogs in his run. He was immediately rushed to a vet where his wounds were treated and he was placed on IV's and antibiotics.

Guinness
June, 2005

Guinness was picked up on 5/29 from a vet and admitted into Gulf Coast Doberman Rescue's program. The staff at that vet’s office said he was dumped there to be euthanized. They said he had a problem with one of his legs, but that proper nutrition and exercise would help correct it. Once he could be observed by GCDR, it was obvious that this was not a minor problem at all – he had a prior injury or deformity that bent his leg outwards significantly. The turn in the leg has increased noticeably over the past two weeks, and GCDR would like to get Guinness in to see an orthopedic specialist as soon as possible You can learn more by visiting Guinness' Page!
