Rockwall, TX • Rockwall Adoption Center

Someone may have dumped Claire on the side of the road. Then she went into labor, right along the highway! Soon after, things got even worse. Claire suffered severe complications during her delivery. Her life was on the line. But it appeared no one cared about Claire, and no one was coming to her rescue -- until a good Samaritan spotted her. That person called animal control. An officer rushed out and raced Claire to the Rockwall Adoption Center. X-rays and an ultrasound revealed three puppies were stuck. The shelter veterinarian performed emergency surgery, but sadly the puppies passed away. If Claire didn't have the operation, she would have died. Now Claire is doing well and is up for adoption. But the animal shelter needs your help raising the money to pay for Claire's medical bills. "Claire is just one of many animals in need that have come into our care recently, and they deserve nothing less than the best," Molly B., from the shelter, tells Waggle. "Claire is a very sweet and loving girl despite how she came to us. She will hopefully be able to find her furever home soon. After all she has been through, she deserves a loving family that can see how special she is." Please give to help Claire and the shelter!
