Daisy Mae is a 12-year-old Beagle in Geneva, OH, who needs $298 for Treatment for Congestive Heart Failure.

Thought to be about 12 years old, Daisy Mae was wandering around in the middle of winter near an area full of puppy mills. The local dog warden picked her up, but no one ever inquired about her. It's likely that she was a puppy mill escapee, or was dumped because she was no longer useful to her previous owners. It also looks as if she had whelped a litter of pups in the not so distant past.

Little Daisy Mae is settling into the Sanctuary, and is quickly touching the hearts of everyone she meets. Perfectly well-behaved, this old Beagle models kindness and love and is soaking up love and attention like a sponge. She's one of the sweetest little dogs we've ever cared for and her spirit is an inspiration to us all.

We provide sanctuary and lifetime care for those animals that are unadoptable, and rely on donations to give the animals the best care possible. We've already raised funds to cover Daisy's echo/ultrasound, labs and medications. We need funds to cover her CHF treatments.

In addition to her other health issues, Daisy developed congestive heart failure and spent some time in the hospital. We knew that her heart was compromised when we took her in. Her back leg swells when her heart is overtaxed and she now takes 6 medications every 12 hours. Dr. Tom Zulandt, of Madison Vet Hospital is overseeing her care. CHF is serious, but Daisy is doing well with treatments.

Daisy Mae loves car rides and she's the perfect little passenger, sitting snugly on her caretaker's lap. She's so short that we joke that she needs a booster seat to see out the windows. But, she doesn't seem to mind not being able to see out the window and just lays her head on our arms as we drive through the country.
