Shortly rehoming her, during Ella’s spay operation a serious complication was discovered. Her bladder was full of struvite stones. The situation would have been catastrophic if swift veterinary treatment had not been given. Unfortunately, Ella’s insurance would not cover what turned out to be an expensive and life saving intervention.
Charlie like many dogs in rescue, found himself there when his family had a change of circumstances. Luckily for Charlie, his family didn’t sell him on one of the many pet selling sites. They pose all kinds of problems for the animals being sold and we always advocate rehoming via reputable, experienced rescue organisations, not selling sites.
An awesome foursome of dogs helped by collaboration between our charity and Starfish Dog Rescue. We knew that Starfish would be taking in a number of dogs who’d been saved from a terrible breeding situation. Their exact veterinary needs weren’t known, but we had it covered. Helping rescues which save dogs from the breeding industry is a prioty for Schnauzerfest.
