Next, we have a little girl in Northern Texas who was a train wreck waiting to be rescued. She has numerous issues and was at the point of being euthanized when our volunteer Don Rorschach, stepped in to save her.


8 year old "Doodles" has a breast tumor which needs to be removed immediately.

Subject: BICHON NEEDS HELP
Date: 10/19/2011 12:42:57 P.M. Central Daylight Time
From: happylan@bellsouth.net

The dog belonged to an elderly couple who "found" her. The husband died and the wife is being taken away to live with a sister. They dropped the dog at their groomer's (Peggie) and asked her to place it or have it euthanized by the end of the week. One of her clients knew Don and got in touch with him. Don picked her up this morning and got the "Transfer of Ownership" form.
The dog is now at Cityview Vet Office. I have talked with Dr. Hudgins, who is her vet. She says the lesions on her back are not from "allergy" as stated, but are some kind of burns. Dr. Hudgins said she needs spaying, and has an ear infection, so they are starting her on antibiotics. She also has a mammary tumor that needs to be removed. Dr. Hudgins x-rayed the lungs to see if the cancer has spread, and apparently it is just in the breast. She also has a large bladder stone that needs to come out, and she needs a dental. Dr. Hudgins thinks she is close to 8 years old as we originally though. The total of work to be done is $1200, which is $600.00 for us. Surgery is scheduled for Friday, if it is ok. Sorry but I guess the situation was somewhat urgent. Doodles certainly needed attention.

"Trust, a Deadly Disease"
A MUST read, sent in by our Team Leader
to the Carolinas, Kathryn Smith

and Community Animal Control Magazine.~


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.
