10/3/24 – On August 14 we posted about two very sweet dogs rescued from the streets of Detroit — Big Daddy and Farrah. We were asked to help with vetting which we did but sadly Big Daddy was found to be positive for heart worm. Big Daddy will see Dr. Mina at Five Mile Animal Hospital where he will begin his treatment. Paws crossed for Big Daddy. Without our donors and our friends who attend our fundraisers, we could not assist the many animals and independent rescuers who need our help.

I would also like to take the opportunity to thank the kind and generous animal lovers who think of us at one of the most difficult times in their lives — when they lose a loved one. At this time I would like to thank our Board member Denise Najera and her sister Shelly who lost their mom in August, Renae Rooks who lost her husband in September, the Foronator Family who recently lost their loved one, Benjamin, and to my dad, Robert Jelsone who passed away in September and chose (while in hospice) to have donations made to 4 Paws 1 Heart in lieu of flowers.

May God be with the families and may those left on earth find solace in knowing that so many animals will have a second chance at life (like Big Daddy) because of their love. – diana https://4paws1heart.org/donations/
