We Did it Again!
                           Thanks to your generous donations to the
                           Tess McIntyre Foundation, 9 horribly
                           abused dogs from throughout the United
                           States and Mexico have been rescued
                           from deplorable conditions and received
                           life-saving medical care. Here are the
                           stories of the remarkable dogs we helped
                           save this year.

Miley
                           Miley was kept chained up by her owners
                           for the first five months of her life. When
                           our partners at Home for Good Dog
                           Rescue (HFGR) found Miley she was
                           limping because of the abuse she
                           suffered. Thanks to you, we helped pay
                           for Miley’s veterinary care. She has been
                           adopted by a loving family that takes
                           excellent care of her. Freed from her
                           chains, Miley has free rein of her
                           backyard.

Sirona
                           Sirona was rescued when she was
                           three-years old. She had a large
                           mass on the side of her neck and
                           was covered in fleas. Sirona was
                           malnourished because the mass
                           on her neck impaired her ability to
                           swallow. Because of your
                           donations, Sirona was able to
                           have the surgery she needed to
                           remove the mass. While
                           recovering, Sirona stole the hearts
                           of her foster family who adopted
                           her.

Cleo
                           Cleo lived the first seven or eight years of
                           her life in horrible conditions. Cleo had a
                           lot of medical problems that required
                           costly surgeries and medications,
                           including a tumor on her backside, severe
                           dermatitis, decaying and missing teeth
                           and a hematoma in her left ear. Thanks to
                           your generous support, we provided Cleo
                           with the treatments she so desperately
                           needed. She will soon be transported to a
                           loving home in New Jersey.

Kaiya
                           Kaiya was rescued from a puppy
                           mill and suffered from genetic
                           disorders that made her
                           incontinent and subject to
                           frequent, painful urinary tract
                           infections. Your generosity helped
                           the us pay for two surgeries to
                           correct these conditions. Kaiya is
                           currently recovering and her
                           doctors are confident she will be
                           able to lead a normal happy life.

Captain
                           Captain was found unresponsive with a
                           bullet wound that went from his right
                           shoulder to the left side of his head. After
                           he was rescued), he underwent
                           emergency surgery. Your compassionate
                           donations helped pay for Captain’s
                           continued care, which includes treatment
                           for heartworm and neutering. Captain will
                           be a wonderful pet for a very lucky family.

Hayden
                           Hayden had to be carried out of
                           the breeding facility where he
                           suffered a lifetime of abuse. One
                           of Hayden’s kneecaps moves out
                           of place and he is blind in one eye.
                           Your generosity helped pay for
                           Hayden’s operation to correct his
                           kneecap. He is recovering and is a
                           “lovable, happy, goofy Golden
                           boy” that will be a great addition
                           to a caring forever family one day.

Cookie
                           Cookie was only 8 months old when
                           her owners had to surrender her
                           because they couldn't afford to pay
                           for the surgery she needed to repair
                           a blockage in her intestine from a
                           large hair curler. Because of your
                           donations, Cookie was able to have
                           surgery and is now recovering nicely.

Virgo
                           When Virgo was rescued, she was
                           suffering from inhumane
                           overbreeding and had just given
                           birth to a litter of five puppies.
                           She also had an eye infection,
                           heartworm, severe sarcoptic
                           mange and was covered with
                           parasitic mites. Your generous
                           donations helped Virgo and her
                           puppies receive the care they so
                           desperately need. They will soon
                           be transported to New Jersey and
                           adopted into loving homes.

Luna
                           Luna is about 2 years old and came to us
                           severely underweight. She had Exocrine
                           Pancreatic Deficiency and a bacterial
                           overload in her stomach. Her foster mom
                           describes her as a sweet, loving dog who
                           likes to play ball. So far she has gained
                           two pounds and is eating five times a day.
                           We look forward to seeing Luna in full
                           health and ready to be adopted into her
                           forever home.
