This mom and her 6 pups were left on a Texas highway near a river in hopes that someone would take them in. Our rescue partners did just that and have this sweet family scheduled to transport to us mid May.  Mom was extremely emaciated at time of recovery but is recovering beautifuly.HW+ simply means the dog has tested positive for heart worms in our screening process.  We utilize what is called the “fast-kill method” which means we place the dog on antibiotics for 30 days and then administer 3 injections in increments afterward.  The cost to treat heart worms is rather steep.  However, thanks to our generous donors, we are able to cover that cost for our adopters so long as they go to our veterinarian, Red Rocks Animal Center in Lakewood.We have no back story or update for this dog at this time.  When we do, it will be updated here.  This is all the information we have currently.
