POOR SNOWDROP!!

This 4 year old German Shorthaired Pointer was left outside on our sidewalk one freezing, rainy night.  Luckily one of our staff went outside to their car and saw these eyes staring out of a carrier just before everyone was going home for the night.  We pulled her inside to safety, she was soaking wet and shaking partially because of fear and also because she was cold.

It was clear once we examined her that something was very wrong with her left eye and she had a mammary tumor.  She has been into the eye specialist and has been diagnosed with congenital glaucoma in both eyes.  The pressure was so extreme in her left eye that if it were to go untreated the eye had the potential to pop out of the socket.  We got the eye drops that Snowdrop needs.  Now we need help paying her medical bills, which total $700 so far.  Please consider sponsoring, fostering or adopting Snowdrop!  She is extremely sweet with other dogs & children!

 

BESSIE!


Bessie is a 1.5 year old female Puggle who has been diagnosed with microvascular dysplasia-she was born with too small of a liver.  This causes Bessie to have seizures so she is now on Phenobarbital and has not had any seizures since the start of the medication.  She will need follow up blood tests to make sure she is on the appropriate medications.  She wiggles like crazy at the site of any person, so playful & sweet.  Please consider fostering, sponsoring while in our care or adopting Bessie!

 

This innocent little kitten was rescued by a good samaritan and brought to AHS last week still smelling of smoke.  He had been kicked repeatedly into a bonfire by a group of teenagers!  AHS is treating his burned eye, severely blistered pads and mouth.  He is fighting hard and responding to the gentle hands that are caring for him.  His name is  "Josh" -- after his rescuer.  Please help with his medical expenses by sending a check or visiting our Donate Now page and making a donation in his name.

BUDDY- This poor 10 year old boy was dropped off at an animal control facility in southern Illinois and set to be euthanized.  We stepped in and rescued him.  When he arrived at our shelter we realized his jaw was broken, he was severely dehydrated and had not eaten in a week.  He still wagged his tail, gave us kisses and wanted to be held.  Our local veterinarian said Buddy needed to get to an oral surgeon immediately.  The jaw has been broken for quite a while now, he is in excruciating pain, needs all of his teeth pulled and the jaw fixed.  Even with Buddy being an older boy with a lot of problems with his mouth, he deserves better treatment in life than what he has gotten.  We could not give up on him like other people in his life have.  It is going to cost $2,000 to get Buddy's mouth & jaw fixed and we desperately need your help!  If we can all pull together for Buddy since so many other people have let him down, we can finally help Buddy feel loved for once in his life.  You can click on any 'Donate Now' button throughout the site to donate by credit card or you can mail a check to the shelter address and specify that Buddy is who the donation is for.

WE NEED FOSTER HOMES!!!!  PLEASE FILL OUT THE FOSTER APPLICATION ON OUR ONLINE APPLICATION PAGE AND AN AHS STAFF MEMBER WILL GET BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS WE RECEIVE IT!******
