Dallas Animal Services - Urgent Vet Care Needed

 CLF17 A734686, A734687, A734688, A734689, A734685
These cute cats are also getting upper respiratory infections.  They are about 6 weeks old and have been here since 8/3/12.  They need to be out of the shelter before they become even more sick.

 A735804 Dlf138
This little girl is only 5 weeks and is unable to walk! She came into the shelter on 8/9/12.  Her hind legs are unable to bend and it appears the stifle and tarsal joints are flexing in the wrong direction!!  Our veterinarian is recommending she needs radiographs to evaluate the issue further and believes this is a congenital problem.

 A735139 Injd15
This sweet heart is a female miniature schnauzer that came into the shelter on 8/7/12.  At the moment she is unable to bear weight on her right rear leg and our veterinarians believe it may be a luxated hip.

 A735474 DLF88B
This girly came in on 8/9/12 with an injured eye.  Our veterinarian says it is some sort of trauma to the eye and is recommending her to be seen by a opthamologist to further diagnose the issue.  At the moment we are treating her with medicated eye drops.

 A734915 DLF128
This gentle giant is a male great Pyrenees brought into the shelter on 8/6/12!  He has a gash on the inside of his left rear leg.  Above is a picture of his injury as well as one of his adorable face!


CLF12 A733969, A733973, A733974, A733981
These little hissers are soo adorable and have been here since 7/30/12!  They are only 6 weeks so too young for adoption.  We have been trying to find a rescue for them but they are unfortunately starting to get upper respiratory infections!!  We need them rescued ASAP so as not to spread more infection, also they will do much better in a home environment.


All of these sweet hearts need to be taken out as soon as possible since they are all in need of further vet care.  Please assist us in helping these wonderful pups and kittens!  We also have lots of other wonderful animals that are available, tons of nursing mothers and litters of kittens.  Please keep an eye on petharbor.com to see if you are interested in any of the animals.  Never be afraid to ask about an animal, we will see what we can do for you to get these animals out!  Also attached is a copy of the current rescue list, please let us know if there are any animals you may be interested in. 

Thank you for all you do!
