Cry A Rescue Dilemma

Yorkie Rescue Colorado faces a dilemma. We were contacted yesterday and asked to take in a year and half old male yorkie who had his leg broken Thanksgiving Day. His family cannot afford to have his leg repaired. The vet has given us an approximate price of $3,000 to repair his leg. Seeing that the break happened a week ago it is a more difficult surgery.

What's the dilemma? We don't have $3,000 to fix this little boy. If we don't take him the owner is going to have him put down because the dog is in such pain. It breaks my heart to have to turn him away, knowing that the only thing preventing him from having a long happy life is money!

And people get angry when we ask a re-homing fee for the dogs we do make well. Little ones such as Reese are the reason.

I will continue to look for a way to help him.

Hug your little ones, they are so lucky to be loved and cared for.
