St. Francis Rescue Nacogdoches

LOOKING FOR A CHRISTMAS ANGEL: We found this dog wandering down the middle of the street on December 1, obviously in distress and so exhausted she could hardly stand. We rushed her to our veterinarian at Nacogdoches Animal Hospital. The photos pretty much speak for themselves: besides being cold and tired, she was filthy, hungry, covered in fleas and heartworm positive, though in the early stages of infection. She was also pregnant.

After a bath, a (safe) flea treatment and food, she slept for eight hours. The next morning she went into labor (we're sure you can imagine, as we do, what would have happened had she not been found when she was). She has now delivered seven healthy pups; an eighth was stillborn. She is a loving, experienced mother, and is taking wonderful care of her babies.

We are searching for the owner (no negative comments, please), but have had no response.

After all this gentle, loving dog has been through, we are committed to saving her. We are prepared to take her into rescue, but have no foster homes available. Please consider working a Christmas miracle for this poor soul by fostering her and her babies. If you cannot foster, please consider a donation, toward her care and medical treatment, either with a credit card at stfrancisrescuenac.com/donate/ or a check by mail, P.O. Box 631106, Nacogdoches, TX 75963-1106. We are a 501(c)(3) organization, and your donation is fully tax deductible. If you cannot do either, please share. ... See MoreSee Less
