4/18/16 – We can accomplish nothing if we fail to work together. This is Cherry who is now ready for adoption from our friends at A Hopeful Heart Rescue. A Hopeful Heart has been a great friend to 4 Paws 1 Heart — not only for helping us with placement for those animals we help with medical treatments, but for always being there with advice. We are happy to pay it forward by providing some medical dollars for all of the animals they save, like Cherry. Here is her story: ~ diana

“Meet Cherry! Cherry was found as a stray. When Cherry was found she was extremely thin and was having an allergic reaction to something and full of yucky worms. Cherry is now completely healthy and ready for her new home! Cherry is a 2 year old terrier mix. She is pretty small, gets along with other dogs and cats. Her favorite thing in life is playing with kids. ~ A Hopeful Heart Rescue”

4/16/16 – 4 Paws 1 Heart is happy to pay for Aura’s visit to Dr. Easton of Veterinary Vision of Rochester. We will also work with our friends at Bully’s Angels once Dr. Easton makes her recommendations. ~ diana

“This is Aura, our newest Bully. She is an affectionate girl of 2 and a half years, who loves kids, and her own “baby” (it’s actually a stuffed whale, not a puppy, but we won’t tell her if you don’t). Aura has a condition known as Distichiasis, which means hairs are growing out of her eyelids where there should be none. They rub against her eyes causing damage to the cornea, which of course causes her lots of pain. She is scheduled to see a specialist on the 25th, so we can find out how to save her eyes. Please keep this sweet girl in your hearts, thoughts, and prayers. We will update you soon. ~ Bully’s Angels

4/16/16 – In memory of Sheena, 4 Paws 1 Heart is thankful that we can help our very good friends, Mutts of Motown, with some of their medical bills. Mutts of Motown has helped us several times and there is no doubt in my mind that these dollars will be well spent on animals who have no one else to care. Here is Sheena’s story:

“Our senior Sheena passed away last night in one of her two loving foster homes. She was a beloved member of our mutts family and had been with us for almost three years. She was having some issues eating, and the cancer that was causing those issues took over. She passed peacefully with one of our volunteers at her side. She didn’t suffer, and she knew she was loved. She knew the safety and love of two different homes and thrived at both places. She was a fun girl who howled if you sang to her, and loved car rides and beggin strips. Our losses seem to keep coming this year and this happens sometimes especially to rescues that take seniors and issue dogs Please bear with us if we are a bit behind on our calls, and emails. Our volunteers loved her dearly and we are all devastated. ~ Mutts of Motown”
