🆘💔INJURED PUP FOUND HIDING UNDER CAR💔🆘 This sweet as sugar stray baby was found injured hiding under a car in Hialeah, FL. She struggles to walk and urinate and her belly is huge. Finder believes she may have been beaten. She is very young, maybe 9-10 months old, and despite her suffering she still manages a little tail wag. She has been through so much pain and neglect in her young life. She was rushed over to Town and County Animal Hospital in Miami over the weekend and had emergency surgery to repair a double fracture in her front leg - we were given an estimate of $4K for JUST for the surgery. The extreme bloat in her belly is believed to be because she is full of parasites draining her of any nutrients. This means she has been neglected for most, if not all, of her life. Taffy has known only neglect and pain at the hands of humans, but is sweet, loving and trusting regardless. She has won over the hearts of the vet staff and everyone who has met her. We will heal her body and soul and make sure she finds a loving forever home once she is healed, but she has a long way to go. Please help us help Taffy! We have taken on several major medical cases over the past few weeks that have depleted our emergency medical funds, but no one else was helping Taffy & we couldn't bear to leave her in that pain. Please help us by donating. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal rescue!

Fort Myers, FL • Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue, Inc
Guardians of Florida Animal Rescue and a good Samaritan stumbled upon a gut-wrenching situation in the wake of Hurricane Ian. Two senior dogs were abandoned in a home. "We received a call about two elderly and very sick dogs, Max and Lester," Dana B., with the rescue, tells Waggle. "They were left alone to fend for themselves after their family was rescued and the home flooded. It devastates us when people are forced to choose between their safety and their pets." Even though the rescue was without power and at capacity with other dogs they saved from the storm -- they could not leave Max and Lester behind! "When our volunteer arrived, they were both lying on the floor, completely immobile in their excrement. They had to be carried out and transported to our kennels," Dana says. Max was so sick he was suffering. The kindest thing was to let him go in peace. Lester was hospitalized gravely ill with pneumonia and multiple health issues. He's fighting for his life. The rescue desperately needs help paying for Lester's veterinary bills. They are overwhelmed with all the animals they saved during the hurricane and are struggling. "We aren't giving up on Lester," Dana says, "We will do everything we can to get him the medical care he needs."
