Labrador Retriever [Mix]

Hi everyone. A long, hard, tiring, stressful journey has come to an end for the 4 lab mix puppies from the gassing shelter in GA. I am so excited and happy all the pups will be ok!!! They have a long road of recovery ahead of them, but will live. 3 of them are in their new homes with their new families. AFF would like to thank Dr. Hopkins, Dr.Masenco, and Mr. Zaron for adopting these babies and taking over their vet care. We visited with the families and puppies and it was amazing. The puppies and people are all in love and these little puppies are so happy and playful. These puppies were meant to come here. Mom is also doing well and was adopted by a woman who runs a pointer rescue, who we would also like to thank for getting the puppies from GA and paying the bill there for them. Our vet bill was not what we thought it would be since the vets who adopted the pups took over their care. So we owe $2700.00. Of that we have left to pay $978.00 . We did not know we would be charged each month for not paying, we thought we would have time to pay it off but we are being charged each month the bill is not paid, So it keep going up. AFF would also like to thank Best Friends in Utah for helping us with a part of the vet bill and all the people who have donated so far. We would also like to thank Maggie the foster mommy and Libby and Mara for spending the night in the ER and driving all over to get them where they needed to go.The family at AFF is furever grateful for all of the kindness and help from everyone who rallied to save these pups and everyone who supported us through this. Here are new pics of the 3 pups who where adopted. It makes me cry, but finally happy tears.... We unfortnatly had to take the smallest PEanut back look for her picture she is almsot ready to be up for adoption. If you can donate to help us pay the rest of the bill please use the paypal button or send your tax deductable donation to P.O box 301 Warminster Pa,19874. Please write that the doantion is for the GA Lab mix puppies. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aff rescued 4 blk lab/pointer mix puppies from being gassed in Georgia. Unfortunately these poor babies are not well. Pongo the only male was having labored breathing he had to be rushed to the ER at midnight on May 25th . we did not even have him 24 hours. This is shameful and awful. these poor babies at only 11 weeks old have suffered so much already. after there 12 hour ride from GA being away from there mom ( who went to another rescuer who is keeping her) and then poor Pongo bein taken from his sisters. Poor Pongo is in an oxygen tank, on med's through IV and getting x rays. Pongo had a trachea wash today and a test for distemper. We took the three girls ( Rosie, Daisy and peanut) to the vet . the vet said that 2 are ok the other is on her way to the ER. she will need to be in oxygen and have Med's through IV like her brother. Before I could even sent this out I got a call from the foster mom Rosie and Daisy where having labored breathing and throwing up they are on there way to the U of P now. they all have pneumonia. Weather it is from kennel cough or distemper we will not know for a few days. The estimate so far for Pongo's vet bill is $3000.00 to $4000.00. It will be the same most likely for Rosie, Daisy and Peanut. AFF is desperate for donations!!! The 3 girls need to be moved to ICU but we need $1000.00 at least as a deposit. If we can not get this today I am afraid the unthinkable will happen!!! This is awful and I don't think I will be able to live with myself, all I wanted to do was save these pups from being gassed!! We can not pay a bill that will be $20000.00 there is no way. We have all of them in the hospital with a bill already for just Pongo of $3000.00 to $4000.00 it will cost $700.00 each for the 3 girls to stay the night. We have no way to pay the bills. We are told we have to wait 2 to 5 days for the distemper test to come back, If it is not Distemper they could be fine. Pongo was actually up and playing which was good. But AFF is stuck!! we will have to make a decision tomorrow we can not afford to keep them in the hospital for 2 to 5 days. This is the hardest thing ever!!!!! the 4 people that make up AFF are devastated!!! Unless we can get lots and lots of donations ,I don't even know how we will pay the current bill. We are a 501 c 3 non for profit and count on donations from kind people. We where told these babies where healthy, They spent 2 weeks at a vets office in GA and where not treated the Anti biotic's they where on we are told are not for kennel cough they are very skinny looks like they where no even fed and have bellies full of worms which is the least of there problems now. AFF needs your kind donations to help pay the current vet bill which is $3000.00 to $4000.00 for Pongo and estimated $2100.00 for the girls to spent the night in the ER. Please any amount will help!! you can donate using the donate button at www.aff.petfinder.com or by postal mail P.O. box 301 Warminster Pa 18974, Please write puppies so we can put it right to there bill. Or send money straight to the vet hospital Ryan Veterinary Hospital 3900 Spruce St. Phila Pa 19104. Please write on the envelope business department and inside that the money is for the lab mix puppies with Animal friends furever so they will put the money right on the babies bill. We understand if you can not donate and just ask you to pass this along and keep your fingers crossed and keep Pongo , Rosie, Daisy and little peanut in your thoughts to help them get better so they can have a furever home they so much deserve!! As of now this is the amount needed to pay off the bill. Tomorrow we will have to make a decision on what to do with the pups. we could not keep them in the hospital for 2 to 5 days.
