10/10/16 – This beautiful girl was running the streets and it took hours for her rescuers to finally catch her. Several times she was almost hit by a car and at one point she was even being ‘sexually assaulted’ by another dog. Several attempts have been made to find an owner without success. 4 Paws 1 Heart was then contacted for what was thought to be basic medical assistance. The rescuers were concerned that she could be pregnant. Cassie was taken to the vet where it was found that she was in heat; there were no signs of pregnancy. Unfortunately, what was found is that she is heart worm positive. As all of you know, we are at a low point with finances but the doctor believes treatment must start as soon as possible. We are working with the rescuers to start the initial 30 day treatment and hope that we will be successful with our upcoming fundraisers so that we can assist with the final treatment
