Parvo Tried to Take Them — But We Couldn’t Let That Happen

This year has been brutal. With all the rain in Oklahoma, parvo has spread faster than we’ve ever seen. Normally, we’re able to keep it contained in the city’s Animal Control kennels. But this time, it hit home. Two of our own shelter dogs, Odie and Hamy, fell ill. Watching them grow weak from such a vicious virus was heartbreaking, but we refused to give up on them.

Parvo is aggressive and fast-acting, especially for dogs already under stress in a shelter environment. Odie and Hamy both had to be rushed into emergency care, where they received round-the-clock treatment and intensive medical support. It was a difficult fight, but with expert care and lots of love, they made it through.

We’re so thankful they pulled through, but the emergency treatment came with a cost we simply weren’t prepared for. The invoice is steep, and as a small organization, it’s more than we can carry on our own. That’s why we’re turning to you.

Please help us cover the cost of saving these two precious lives. Every dollar gets us closer to paying off their treatment and continuing our mission to rescue, heal, and protect.

They fought hard to survive — and now we’re fighting for them.
