MEET WOODY, BUZZ & JESSIE

THREE LITTLE LIVES FIGHTING TO SURVIVE

Update

We wish we had happier news to share.

First, thank you to everyone who has donated, shared, and sent love to these three precious puppies.

All three are still fighting for their lives, and they are still very much in the thick of this devastating disease.

WOODY is the most stable of the three, but we use that word very cautiously. He is still incredibly sick, and we are far from out of the woods.

BUZZ desperately needs your help. On top of battling parvo and parasites, we’ve discovered he has a bowel obstruction. At some point while surviving on the streets, this poor baby swallowed a rock. Imaging has confirmed it cannot pass on its own. Buzz must now survive parvo and become strong enough for an endoscopic procedure or intestinal surgery, adding an estimated $6,000 to his already staggering medical bills.

JESSIE, our little princess, is really struggling today. Her blood sugar has become dangerously unstable, requiring a special port to administer glucose and frequent monitoring. If her blood sugar crashes, she could suffer seizures or even die. Our sweet girl is fighting so hard.

THE FINANCIAL REALITY IS OVERWHELMING ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE OTHER DOGS IN OUR CARE AND COUNTING ON US

Our vets anticipate a minimum of four days of hospitalization, with estimates of $12,000–$15,000 PER PUPPY, plus Buzz’s additional procedure.

We are potentially facing $42,000–$51,000 in medical expenses for THREE puppies.

For our non-profit, volunteer-run rescue, this is an enormous undertaking. One that will take us a very long time to recover from financially.We know we’re asking a lot, especially heading into our big year-end fundraising season. But we wouldn’t ask if we weren’t desperate.

These babies cannot wait for the year-end fundraisers our incredible team has put together. They need us NOW.

This is real life. This is full-blown parvo. It’s heartbreaking, terrifying, and unbelievably expensive.

Three little lives that have already endured so much are depending on us, and we are depending on YOU.

PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN

No amount is too small. If you can’t donate, PLEASE SHARE.

We don’t know how this story will end, but we are doing everything we can to give Woody, Buzz, and Jessie the 2nd chance they deserve.

With gratitude,
Central California Labrador Retriever Rescue 🐾
