Gem Of The Day: No time for a Gem. I can't
believe this is happening.
We're headed into
Labor Day weekend and we've
just been hit hard
again.
Our IL./IN. Team
Leader Sara Pace was placed
in a really stressful
situation today. She
went to get ONE Bichon
and there were FOUR
MORE Bichons in danger
of being killed at
a shelter.
Sara was transporting
FIVE more Bichons to
the vet's office.
This will take about
another $3500.00-4000.00
to quarantine and
vet them all and one of
them really has problems.
I don't know what
else to do but to
come
and tell you.
Bijoux (above) is
a six year old female and
the others are all
under two years old
and they are Bichons.
Click below to see
what was done to little
Bijoux, above, at
the shelter.
Look only if you
have a strong stomach.
She came in chewing
on her tail so they had
a vet there amputate
it. She was found like
this sitting in her
own urine. I imagine
our vet is going
to have to go in and clean
it up.
No bandage, no pain
meds, nothing.
Graphic Picture Warning
From Sara, "Here is a picture of Bijoux's
amputated tail. My heart is breaking for
this little girl! She is another sweet one."

If you missed our last newsletter, here it is.
We are going through a spurt of Bichons,
who have been either strays or owner surrenders,
showing up at a shelter near Chicago.
They are overcrowded
and they euthanize
daily.
Sara Pace went there to pick up Bijoux, a
little six year old Bichon who came in chewing
her tail.
They amputated it.

needs immediate vet care.
I got this from Sara
Pace today.

Hi Robin,
I am feeling slightly stressed today. I went
to pick up the bichon female I told you about
with the amputated tail. (pics enclosed and
to follow). Bijoux is a 6 yr old female spayed
bichon that was surrendered in just awful
condition. She had chewed her tail and the
shelter amputated it! As I got there, my
friend (the doctor) told me they had 4 other
bichons that needed rescue! They are all
under 2 yrs old, so a total of 4 females
and 1 male. They did have some of their shots.
So, we just took in another 5 (sorry, but
I didn't want to leave them) My doctor friend
said in this place they either get sick and
die or euthanized.
I am sending pics and updates on all of them
now. Help.
Love
Sara:) >
These are some of the others that were saved
from euthanasia today.
This is Brittany. She is a 1.5-2 yr old bichon
that was surrendered matted, with burrs embedded
in her fur. We are not sure if she is spayed,
vet will check. She has had some of her shots
but will need quarantine, HW, fecal and possible
dental (vet to check)
This a picture of Sindy. Sindy was a 1.5
yr old bichon female surrender to the shelter.
We are not sure if she is spayed. The vets
will check. She has had some of her shots
but will need HW, fecal, quarantine and possibly
dental. (vet will determine)
This is Elliot. He is a 1.5 yr old surrender,
un-neutered male. He will need quarantine,
HW, fecal and shots. Can you believe someone
owned him and let him get to this point.
He was an awful, matted, smelly mess.
This is Destiny who came in from a Rome,
GA. shelter yesterday with an upper respiratory
infection and a bloody eye. We had to get
emergency care for her and we don't know
the cost yet. From a volunteer at the shelter
about Destiny:
"She is in dire
need. Her eye is extremely
swollen since the
weekend and they almost
put her down today."
From our GA. Team
Leader about Destiny:
"She is now in our care heading to the
vet's office. Thank you very much Maureen
and Jim for picking this sweet girl up. Maureen
mentioned her eye is all red and oozing as
well as sneezing and coughing like she has
an upper respiratory infection. :( Very dirty
also. She is now Destiny Small Paws.

Sara couldn't leave them there to be killed.
They are young healthy Bichons.
But we need your
help. People are
starting
to leave for Labor
Day Weekend.
If you can help.
we need you.
I will issue all matching donation challenges
that come in for Bijoux's Tail and the others.
You just can't know
the lengths we will go
to, in order to save
a Bichon's tail.
They love their tails.
Some dogs are ok
without their tails.
Bijoux will have
to be ok.
I only wish we could
have had a chance to
save her tail.
It was probably something
as simple as allergies.
She looks good everywhere
else.
But I digress.
We do need your help.
All My Love, Robin

Humphrey Sisco

When I first saw this beautiful picture of
Cheri Sisco's "Humphrey",
I thought it was
truly the epitome
of what we do, and
why
we do it. I wanted
to use this black
and
white picture of
Humphrey, taken only
days
before his death
due to congestive
heart
failure, to let those
who may be new to
Small
Paws, know what we
do and why we do
it. Without
Small Paws, Humphrey
would have never
known
love. He would have
died in a kill shelter,
sick and alone. Because
of Small Paws, and
Cheri Sisco, he lived,
he loved, and he
smiled.
