Post Surgical Followup for Ophelia

Well, she had her heart surgery on Nov 3, and we are happy to report it was successful and she is on the road to recovery!

!! BIG THANK YOU!! to all of you who donated to her surgery so far. It was expensive and she will have additional costs in the coming year with follow up visits. We are happy we are able to help this sweet and wonderful girl.

Her costs are ongoing, so donations are always welcome. You can contribute by 1) the DONATE button on Facebook (we'll know it is for Ophelia ); 2) visit our website at dawgrescue.com, click on the donate link and specify "shelter medical"; and 3) send a check to DAWG at P.O. Box 1850, Gardnerville, NV 89410 and write Ophelia on the memo line. All contributions are tax deductible.

Thank you and thank you for your support of our shelter animals!
