Dora is a 7-year-old Poodle, Mix in Eureka, CA, who needs $431 for Dental Work/Extractions.

Dora is a rescue from a high volume shelter in California. This senior lady was recently transferred to our shelter so that we can help find her a forever home to live out the remainder of her years in. While she is in our shelter, we are working hard to get her healthy so that she can get a fresh, new start in her new home.

Dora is a friendly, sweet lady! She is friendly with shelter staff, and has been a trooper since her surgery. We have found that she might enjoy being a lap dog in her future home, and we are excited to help her find that once she has recovered enough to be ready for adoption. This girl deserves to start her life in her forever home!

As a non profit, no kill shelter, our funding is limited and based on donations, grants, and other fundraising methods. When we have a pet with outstanding medical costs, we often have to get more creative with our funding to make sure we can provide the care needed.

Dora came to our shelter needing a dental procedure to remove unhealthy teeth. Dental needs are something we see more with senior dogs, and at seven years old, Dora fits the bill. We took her to Sunny Brae Animal Clinic to have several teeth removed, and she has been recovering nicely. We anticipate a full recovery for Dora.

We have found Dora to be special for a number of reasons. Dora has continued to be consistently friendly and snuggly with us, despite having gone through so much since she arrived in our shelter, not to mention what she may have encountered in her past! Having surgery is a lot for anyone, pet or human, to go through, so we are amazed by her resilience!
