Raising funds to help Faith and Hope

We have been contacted by a local resident who is trying to raise funds to help with the ongoing veterinary treatment for 2 dogs, Faith and Hope. They are elderly, probably mother (10 years) and daughter (8 years), rescued from the welsh Mountains where they had been discarded like rubbish, no longer useful as breeding dogs in a puppy farm.

Rowe vets have very kindly offered their time at charity rates but funds are desperately needed to continue with the care and treatment as required.

Saved by the charity DogsFriends they spent the next 2 years being cared for in a stable.   As they became frailer a forever foster home was offered in September so they can know the love and comforts of a home life at last.

Both dogs have ongoing medical needs for Ophthalmology treatments. Faith has already had one eye removed and has glaucoma in the other. She is totally blind but has eye drops daily to keep the remaining eye healthy albeit sightless. Hope has eye pressure and sight problems and also cataracts, so tests and an operation is needed shortly. Both have regular eye checks to keep abreast of any problems arising.

Both ladies have skin problems associated with long term flea infestations, which were not treated whilst in the puppy farm and when living alone on the mountains.

This is an appeal asking if you could please help fund the veterinary treatments & eye surgery needed for these two very special senior ladies. Every penny raised will go towards making their life a little easier.

If you would like to know more about these lovely ladies or perhaps to donate to the Faith and Hope Fund please contact us as below:  Julie 01934 744745 or [email protected] Diane 01454 312097 or [email protected] Glynis 01454 888055 or [email protected]
