4/21/17 – Mickey was found near a local cemetery on a cold January day drinking water from a puddle. Fortunately, a good samaritan rescued him but could not find his owner. She contacted 4 Paws 1 Heart and Mickey was taken to a vet. It was thought he had cherry eye. What he had, was Entropion of the eye which required surgery. He was also found to be heart worm positive. Today he goes to the vet to get his last treatment and then he will be able to be neutered and on his way to finding his forever home. Here he is in the back seat looking over his foster brother. Everyone at Five Mile Animal Hospital has fallen in love with this very sweet boy.

4/20/17 – I received a call from one of our friends who has also been protesting at the Michigan Anti Cruelty facility and intercepting animals who were being brought to their death. This very sweet dog was lying on the side of the road and it appeared she had been hit by a car. We immediately authorized Tacoma to be taken to the hospital. It turned out that she is a elderly dog with injuries that were old and no longer treatable. She did receive antibiotics and pain meds. She had an open wound that needs time to heal. Tacoma is safe and will be with the rescue Safe and Sound as soon as they can find a foster. ~ diana

4/18/17 – Prayers Needed! This beautiful girl, Hope, was running the streets in January, emaciated and very sick. Fortunately, a loving family rescued her and attempted to find her owner. None could be found. She was immediately taken to a veterinarian because her body was covered with wounds, one wound was a very deep hole. Hope’s wounds were treated but then she began coughing and had trouble eating and drinking. Her rescuers took her to two veterinarians, one thought she would need open heart surgery. The other conducted more tests and felt that was not needed. What everyone did agree to was that her heart was very damaged from heart worm. A friend of 4p1h contacted us about Hope’s plight; the family was running out of money to pay for vet bills and by this time, they were worried that they could not ‘rescue’ her after all. I contacted the rescuers and now 4 Paws 1 Heart will work with the rescuers in hopes of giving Hope a second chance in life. Hope will be seeing one of our favorite doctors at Patterson Veterinary Hospital, Dr. Zalac, today. Please say a little prayer that Hope can be on the road to recovery very soon. If we can make this happen, her rescuers will become her permanent, loving family. ~ diana
