Help Us Rewrite Hope's Story
Missoula, MT • WOOF TRIBE SANCTUARY & RESCUE INC
This is Hope. She is a tiny, less than a year old puppy, and has already endured more than any dog should. When Hope arrived in our care, it was immediately clear that this was not a simple medical case. Her entire body is affected by a severe case of Demodex mange, complicated by a massive secondary skin infection and a painful ear infection. Her skin is inflamed, raw, and uncomfortable from head to tail. The discomfort she was experiencing was more than any young dog should know. The good news is that Hope is finally safe and receiving veterinary care. The reality, however, is that her recovery will be long and expensive. Her first veterinary visit alone totaled $1,250. Based on her bloodwork, our veterinary team is concerned she may also be battling Ehrlichia, a serious tick-borne disease. Her red and white blood cell counts were dangerously low, meaning she will require ongoing monitoring, additional diagnostics, and bi-weekly rechecks estimated at approximately $500 per visit. Hope's treatment plan includes intensive medical management, medications to address her infections and mange, nutritional support, regular veterinary evaluations, and weeks of careful observation. We anticipate her recovery will take at least 6-8 weeks before she is healthy enough to undergo her spay surgery. Despite everything she has been through, Hope remains gentle and easy to handle. That quiet strength is what gives us confidence that she can recover with the right care and support. Woof Tribe Animal Sanctuary is already stretched thin caring for parvo puppies, orthopedic cases, cancer patients, and countless other animals in need. But when we saw Hope, walking away was never an option. Now we need your help. Every donation will go directly toward Hope's veterinary care and recovery. Every contribution helps ensure that we never have to cut corners on the treatment she needs. Hope's journey is just beginning, but with your support, her future can look very different from her past. Please donate today and help us give Hope the healthy, happy life she deserves.
Halo
Halo Is Still Choosing Life — Help Us Give Her More Good Days
Missoula, MT • WOOF TRIBE SANCTUARY & RESCUE INC
Halo is one of Woof Tribe’s most cherished sanctuary and fospice dogs. Halo is deeply loved by everyone who knows her, and despite her cancer diagnosis, she continues to show us every day that she is still enjoying life. She is bright, alert, comfortable, eating well, walking, breathing normally, and surrounded by constant love and care in her incredible fospice home. Recently, Halo underwent advanced genomic tumor testing through VetOmics, and the results gave us something we desperately hoped for: another possible option to help buy her more good time. Her report showed that her tumor is classified as TMB-high, meaning it has a high tumor mutation burden. This may make Halo a strong candidate for immunotherapy, a treatment designed to help her immune system better recognize and fight the cancer cells. Based on her results, the top recommendation from the report is Gilvetmab, an IV immunotherapy treatment administered every two weeks. Halo’s oncology team is now working through the best plan for her care, but timing matters. We do not want to lose valuable time while she is still happy, stable, and very much choosing life. This campaign is being created to help cover the cost of Halo’s recommended biweekly Gilvetmab treatments along with the follow-up imaging needed to monitor her response to therapy. Current estimated costs include: \\- Six Gilvetmab immunotherapy treatments at $1,559 each totaling $9,354 - Follow-up chest x-rays estimated at $500 Our campaign goal is $9,854. We know this treatment is not about chasing forever. Halo’s family and medical team understand the reality of her diagnosis. This is about giving her more quality time while she is still comfortable, joyful, and able to enjoy the life she loves so much. Every extra good day matters. Halo already has everything every dog deserves — a devoted fospice home, fresh-cooked cancer-supportive meals, ongoing oncology care, endless companionship, and a community that adores her. Now we are asking for help to give her access to the treatment her oncology team believes may help extend her good quality of life. Please consider donating to help Halo begin immunotherapy and continue receiving the care she needs. Every contribution helps buy this beloved girl more comfort, more love, and more time surrounded by the people who cherish her.
Chance
Chance Needs Emergency Surgery to Repair Her Shattered Pelvis
Missoula, MT • WOOF TRIBE SANCTUARY & RESCUE INC
Meet Chance, a sweet dog whose life changed in an instant after suffering a devastating shattered pelvis. Despite the severity of her injuries, Chance is alive, safe, and fighting — and now she urgently needs our help to get through the long road ahead. Chance is currently hospitalized at Southern California Animal Hospital in Riverside, CA, where she is being stabilized and medically managed while she waits for orthopedic surgery scheduled for 5/28. Right now, her medical team is focused on keeping her comfortable, controlling her pain, and ensuring she remains stable enough to undergo surgery safely. Her injuries are severe, and her recovery will be long and intensive. Once surgery is completed, we will have a better understanding of the full extent of the repairs needed, how she handled anesthesia, and what her rehabilitation process will involve. What we do know already is that Chance will require extensive follow-up care, strict medical boarding, repeat imaging, medications, specialized supplies, and months of recovery support. At this time, Chance’s known expected medical expenses are over $3,000 — and that does not include possible complications, rehabilitation, additional medications, or unexpected medical needs that may arise during recovery. This is an enormous commitment, but Chance deserved the chance to survive and heal. She deserves the opportunity to recover without pain and to someday experience safety, comfort, and love again. Please consider donating to help cover Chance’s surgery and recovery costs. Every donation, no matter the size, directly helps give this brave girl a chance at a future. If you cannot donate, sharing her story can make a lifesaving difference.
4 Parvo Puppies
Four Puppies Fighting Parvo Need Emergency Help
Missoula, MT • WOOF TRIBE SANCTUARY & RESCUE INC
Woof Tribe is currently fighting for the lives of four puppies — Mater, McQueen, Cruz, and Flo — who are facing a devastating parvo outbreak alongside upper respiratory infections (URI). Parvo is an aggressive and deadly virus that can kill puppies quickly without immediate treatment, and the added respiratory infections make their cases even more critical. When we rushed them for emergency care, we were quoted nearly $15,000 per puppy at VCA — a total far beyond what our small rescue can manage while already handling multiple emergency medical cases. But waiting is not an option. These puppies need treatment now if they are going to survive. All four puppies are receiving urgent supportive care, including isolation, fluids, monitoring, medications, and monoclonal antibody treatment. These antibodies help provide immediate immune support by fighting the parvo virus while the puppies’ bodies try to recover. While not a guaranteed cure, they can significantly improve a puppy’s chance of survival when given early. Our immediate known expenses have already reached $7,086.56, and we know these costs can rise quickly with parvo cases. Complications, additional medications, fluids, rechecks, and emergency interventions are often needed without warning. Every dollar donated goes directly toward saving Mater, McQueen, Cruz, and Flo. Their treatment is happening in real time, and the bills are arriving just as quickly. Please donate if you can, and if you are unable to give, sharing their story could help save their lives.
Halo
Dumped With a Tumor the Size of a Soda Can — Halo Is Fighting for More Good Days
Missoula, MT • WOOF TRIBE SANCTUARY & RESCUE INC
Halo was found abandoned in the fields of Modesto, alone and in terrible condition. Her body told the story of a life spent surviving, not living. The most shocking discovery was a mammary tumor the size of a Coca-Cola can — heavy, painful, and impossible to ignore. Woof Tribe Sanctuary & Rescue stepped in immediately. Halo underwent emergency surgery to remove the massive tumor, but that was only the beginning. She has since endured three major surgeries: tumor removal, repair of a hernia through her abdominal wall, and a spay with additional mass removal. Through it all, Halo has shown incredible strength. Sadly, the biopsy confirmed what we feared — Halo has been diagnosed with aggressive cancer. Despite everything she’s been through, Halo is a very special dog. She’s captured hearts and even developed a devoted following on Facebook. People who meet her fall in love with her resilient spirit and gentle soul. Halo’s past was not kind. We believe she was used as a breeder dog and dumped when she showed signs of mammary cancer, likely caused by never being spayed. She didn’t even know how to “dog” when we rescued her. She had learned to survive — hunting for food, fighting off coyotes and snakes, and seeing other dogs as competition instead of companions. She needed professional training just to safely live with other dogs. Slowly, she learned that dogs could be friends, not threats. That transformation alone was a huge victory. Now we are fighting to give Halo the best possible quality of life for the rest of her days. To do that, she urgently needs: • Genome testing on her tumor to create a custom chemo pill plan • Baseline staging care (bloodwork, X-rays, ultrasound, oncology consult, mistletoe therapy consult) • Remaining board-and-train costs Once stabilized, Halo will move to a loving fospice home where she will receive chemo pills, mistletoe therapy, and immune support — all focused on comfort, happiness, and making every day count. Halo survived abandonment. She survived cancer surgery. She survived a life where she had to fight just to exist. Now she deserves gentle days, soft beds, kindness, and love. Your support helps us give Halo not just more time — but better time. Time filled with comfort, care, and the peace she’s never known. Help us make Halo’s remaining days her very best. 4/22/26 Update Halo has already endured so much—abandonment, a massive tumor, three major surgeries, and a diagnosis of aggressive cancer. Now she faces her next critical step: cancer staging tomorrow. This testing will tell us how far the cancer has spread and guide how we keep her comfortable and give her the best quality of life possible. We urgently need to raise funds to cover her care. And we’re especially worried—a new abnormal nipple has appeared near her original tumor site, raising concern the cancer may be returning. Time matters. Halo has fought so hard to survive and is finally experiencing love and safety. Please help us give her the care—and the peace—she deserves. Every donation makes a difference. 4/29/26 Update We are beyond grateful to share that because of your generosity, Halo will now be able to receive the immediate chemotherapy she urgently needs. After Halo’s recent cancer staging appointment, we received devastating news: her aggressive cancer has spread. It was a heartbreaking blow after everything this sweet girl has already endured — abandonment, a massive mammary tumor, three major surgeries, painful recovery, and finally learning what it means to be safe and loved. But thanks to you, that devastating news did not become the end of her story. Because donors stepped forward, Halo now has the funding needed to begin urgent oncology treatment in an effort to slow this disease, push for remission, and give her the best possible quality of life moving forward. Your kindness has given us something priceless: options, hope, and time. Time for treatment. Time for comfort. Time for Halo to keep discovering the gentle life she was always meant to have. When Halo was found alone in that field, discarded when she needed help the most, no one could have imagined how many people would come together to fight for her. But you did. You saw her worth. You believed her life mattered. You chose compassion. Most importantly, because of you, Halo does not have to face this next chapter without help. She is finally surrounded by people who refuse to give up on her. From all of us at Woof Tribe Sanctuary & Rescue, and from sweet Halo herself, thank you for making this lifesaving care possible. We will carry your kindness with us into every treatment, every appointment, and every hopeful day ahead for this brave girl. Halo’s fight continues — but thanks to you, she gets to fight. Thank you for being part of her miracle.
