All 21 dogs are in VERY bad shape. PAAW decided to rescue 5 Dachshunds and one Chihuahua from the group of 21.

There are 4 female daschunds and 1 male daschund. All have severe health issues – ranging from tumors to hip problems from being continously kept in small cages with very little medical care.

The Chihuahua has a crippled hind leg and is also pregnant. After she births her babies the leg will likely have to be amputated.

ALL dogs are Heartworm positive and will need to be spayed or neutered. And all of them need through dental care.

With this being so close to the holiday season, we are asking people to open their hearts and help us help these dogs who deserve a much better life than the one they have known. Please consider making a donation towards their medical expenses and care so that they can heal and have a chance to know a better life.

All donations are tax deductible. You can send your donation by using our Paypal button at the upper right side of our website or send it to P.O. Box 1379, Youngsville, LA 70592

Thank you!

Walk for the animals on Sat., Nov. 14, at the River Ranch in Lafayette, LA.
