Gem of the Day: "The tragedy in life
doesn't lie in not reaching your goal.
The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach."

"Remie" is doing well and they
tell us that she
should pull through!
The emergency vet bill estimate at The Animal Emergency Hospital of North Texas.
was for $2000.00, just from Friday Night
through this morning. That doesn't include
any of her aftercare or her regular vetting
that we will need to do when she is better.
I'm estimating her entire bill will be around
$3500.00 IF she is heartworm negative.
Lately, it seems
that anytime we turn
around
in Texas we are seeing
Heartworm disease!
I spoke with the emergency vet last night
and Remie is now able to be returned to the
Colleyville Animal Hospital in Colleyville
Texas.
When she is ready,
she will be fostered
by
Small Paws Volunteer,
Molly Smith. Thanks
everyone for helping
her!
Ok, we didn't get a break between Remie and
the next life or
death emergency.
Sunday afternoon,
Sara Pace called me.
There are FOUR very
Bichonly looking dogs
in danger of being
euthanized at a shelter
near Chicago.
Sara is going to
call me from the
shelter
this morning.
If we can raise funds to rescue these four,
it will cost an average of $600.00 each to
vet and quarantine each of them in this area.
That's if nothing else is wrong with them.
That's an additional
$2400.00 that we
weren't
expecting.
Since neither of these two matching challenge
donations have been met yet for Remie, I'm
going to leave them up in hopes that we can
raise the rest of what we will need for her
vet bill.
Then we also need to raise funds for these
four in immediate danger.
From Byron Byrne, we have this generous challenge
that he will match up to $2000.00.! Thank
you Byron, so very much!

I will match all other challenges up to the
total cost of Remie's needs up to 2000.00
(my share). It's been a while since I have
given to this GREAT CHARITY but this little
one got me off my butt. THIS CONTRIBUTION
IS IN MEMORY OF "SHADOW" (6/28/92-5/29/02)
who was not a bichon but a toy poodle. I
found Small Paws Rescue while looking for
a tombstone for shadow after his death from
lymphoma. I still miss him.
Thanks,

Then we have a second generous challenge
for $1000.00 from Mike Bush in North Texas!
Thank you Mike, again!

Robin,
I'll match Sue's
challenge and also
match
any amount up to
$1000 for Remie.
That little girl
is in my neck of

and I want her to
have a chance at
a
forever.home.

I'm sorry this is
all hitting at once!
When it rains it

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.
