This adorable girl, Hazel, came into rescue in mid-March after leaving her third home. She's a sweet, petite girl whose family said that with two children under the age of two, they just didn't have enough time for her. Hazel was lame and clearly in pain when she came to Berner Inc., suffering from a torn cruciate ligament.
Earlier this week Hazel received an over $3,000 surgery to repair the ligament as well as a torn meniscus. Happily she is now resting in the care of her loving foster mom, Alise Burbridge, where she'll spend the duration of a six week recovery period.
With such an expensive surgery, the Rescue fund has suffered as well, while there continue to be more and more dogs coming in with medical needs these days. Obviously, diminished resources inhibits how many dogs can be taken in, treated, and re-homed.
Donations to aid Hazel's care and other rescue Berners can be made through PayPal or by check mailed to:
BERNER Inc.
P.O. Box 1221Arlington, MA 02474-0021
As always, your donations and support are greatly appreciated.
Be sure to check back for regular updates on Hazel's recovery!
I understand that Hazel has come through her surgery with flying colors and is recuperating under the loving care of foster "mom" Alise Burbridge. I hope to have some photos and updates on sweet Hazel soon! Donations to help cover her surgery would be welcome.
