Dear Small Pawsers,

Small Paws Rescue Online Newsletter, especially to those of you who may have recently seen us on December 11, 2012, on Fox and Friends in New York City , or on Animal Planet on "Dogs 101.", or you may have read about us in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Find Your Happiness, 101 Stories about Finding Your Purpose, Passion and Joy . You also may have seen us on "Inside Edition" with Deborah Norville!

If you missed our previous newsletter, here it is.

Deep in the heart of Texas, we have four precious heartworm positive dogs.

Without treatment, they would die.

Treatment is expensive. With normal vetting, plus adding in heartworm treatment, we are looking at an average of $1000.00 in vet costs per heartworm positive dog.


Penny is 1 1/2 years old and heartworm positive.


Allie is 1 1/2 years old and heartworm positive. She is Dixie's Mother.


Dixie is 7 months old and is heartworm positive. She is Allie's daughter.


Finley has flat been through the ringer. He was rescued with ringworm. which is a fungus that is expensive to treat. On top of that he is heartworm positive.
OF COURSE HE IS!

These are just four of the heartworm positive dogs we have in rescue right now.

That's the bad news.

The good news is that we have a matching donation challenge from Jeanne Montrose in Florida, for $250.00! If someone can match her, that will raise $500.00 for these Bichons! Is there anyone who can match Jeanne? Thank you Jeanne!

Robin,

Hope things have quieted down at your way for a while and that the kidz won't continue to fall from the sky at the current rate. I would like to issue a matching challenge from Gabby and Snoopy of $250.00. All of the other kidz who are running around our household had a say in this. Chipper and Louie>

We appreciate each and every one of you. Together, we are changing lives. Both four legged and two.

All My Love, Robin

>When these folks applied to adopt, and we asked how their Bichon was killed by a car, this was their response. We hear this on an average of once a week.

(These are NOT Bichons adopted from Small Paws.)

PLEASE don't take a chance with the life of your Bichon!
We do not adopt to people who allow their dogs to run loose.

We had him for the last five years, He is very obedient normally when we say "stay" he will stop wherever he is, so some times we are used to play with him in the yard for he loves to run around the yard in circles, during that time we did not put him on the leash, this particular day he was not on leash and did not yield to the command when he saw some dog across the road. It took off so suddenly the on coming driver did not have time to stop the car. That is how it happened.>


Humphrey Sisco
Dec 26, 1993~ Aug 30, 2006

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.
