Dear Small Pawsers,
Welcome to our newest members of our Small Paws® Rescue Online Newsletter, especially to those of
you who may have
seen us on October
24, 2011
on Fox and Friends in New York City, or on Animal Planet on "Dogs 101.", or you may have recently read about us

If you missed our last newsletter, click here to read it.
As you know, we have a medical emergency
regarding a pair of Bichons in Tarpon Springs,
Fl.
They are being cared for at the Westlake Animal Hospital.
Maximillan is around 18 Months old.
Max was found with his friend, Tina, as strays
in South Florida. Both are about 18 months
old.
Tina, is the other half of the bonded pair.
Maximillan got very sick from ingesting the
items below.
This is what was retrieved from Max's tummy
in an emergency surgery.
We are only 2/3 of the way there to be able
to pay vet bills for just these two Bichons.
It is costing us an average of $1285.07 per
day just for our vet bills across the country.
Vet Bills Paid by Small Paws Rescue For The
First 18 Days of September, 2012,
Totalling $23,131.17, An Average of $1,285.07
Per Day.
Then, as if this wasn't enough, we received
an owner surrender for for two Bichons, another
bonded pair that are in trouble. :(
There was a divorce
and the owner has
lost
her home.
Both of these Bichons have not seen a vet
in years. One has bladder stones and both
have severe dental disease.
Nellie and Hubble are both nine years old.

We need to take these
two Bichons in West
Virginia.
I don't know how to commit to these two,
when we aren't able to yet pay for Max and
Tina in Florida. And we have a host of other
new Bichons in rescue right now.
We truly need your help to be able to keep
helping Bichons with no one to help them
but us.
We didn't have any matching donation challenges
to offer this time.
I am happy to issue
them if they come
in.
I don't mean to make it sound so dramatic,
but when you have Bichons needing help, and
they are in pain, and their owners have no
home any longer, it IS dramatic.
Thank you all so much for supporting this
rescue effort. We appreciate you!
All My Love, Robin

Dear Robin,
Although I would love to help out with some
rescues this month, maybe next month. I got
a third job to help pay off the bills faster.
Please surround my family with Small Pawser's
prayers. My 26 year old son passed away from
an undetected blood clot in July and then
last Friday we had to send our 12 year old
Scottish terrier over the rainbow bridge.
She was filled with tumors and there was
nothing they could do for her except put
her out of her pain. Our two bichon mixes
are very sad. Not to mention her three human
companions whom are also suffering greatly!
Susie
Thank You's
(God loves you more than anyone else ever
has,
and more than anyone
else ever will!)

You Would Know."
Will God let us have our beloved pet's in
heaven?

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.
