Help this dog rescued from Palco Marsh with her amputation surgery

I got this request from Tamara Faylor.

Surgery is scheduled for this Friday and funds have not been pouring in and so there is a need for more publicity about this sweet girl's amputation surgery need.  Could you please post with priority.  Buddy's & Angel's Animal Rescue is one of the rescues that help the dogs out that would have been involved in the Palco March eviction but for the preplanning and assistance.





Here is the language from the Go Fund Me post:

I volunteer with Buddy and Angel's Animal Rescue which is a non-profit group in Humboldt County.  
This rescue focuses mainly on the homeless animal population in the area. They assist homeless animals by offering services such as spay/neuter, vaccines, dewormer, flea medicine, mange treatments, food distribution, collar/leash distribution and medical appointments. Recently, they have been working with Companion Animal Foundation, Redwood Pals Rescue, and the City of Eureka to provide even more homeless pets with more medical care! 

On one of the rescue's outreach days at the Palco Marsh in Eureka, BAAR came across a 4 month old, female, Pit Bull puppy with a possible dislocated elbow.

Little Ms. Tanner went into a foster situation immediately, pending a vet exam. "Tawny Tanner" (a nick name given by her foster parent) was seen on May 3rd at Myrtle Avenue Veterinary Hospital in Eureka and was not only spayed, but she also received much needed x-rays to determine what was actually wrong with her leg (many thanks to the City of Eureka/Eureka Police Department and their new Animal Control Officer!!)

Unfortunately, the x-rays showed that the puppy's humerus was broken. Due to the location of the break, a simple cast cannot heal the damage. 

Buddy and Angel's is now needing to raise $2000 so that this puppy can have her leg removed, to ensure that she can live pain free! 

I personally have a deep, sincere, passion to assist animals in need, and I know that a lot of people in the Humboldt area feel the same way. 

Not every person who chooses to own a pet, has the ability to fund unforseen accidents. The homeless community has even less options when dealing with medical care for their pets. This is why "Tawny" needs your support!

BAAR understands and appreciates that there are varying opinions on homeless animal ownership. However, the rescue intends on continuing to advocate for the homeless animals in the county who need help. 

With that said, Buddy and Angel's needs your help to get this puppy's amputation done as quickly as possible! 

Every single dollar is sincerely appreciated. All donations are tax-deductible! If you feel uncomfortable donating through Gofundme, please feel free to contact Myrtle Avenue Vet at 707-443-8686 to make a donation on behalf of this special puppy.
