On April 27, 2008 , Pound Rescue sponsored a spay/neuter clinic on the Blood Reserve to help the First Nations animals.
We fixed 11 dogs, rescued 3 adult dogs, 6 puppies, 2 mom cats and 8 kittens, helping a total of 30 animals. Your donations will help us to continue our work.
We went to a home to pick up this dog to be fixed as requested by the residents. The poor animal was skin and bones and slowly starving to death. We convinced the "owner" to surrender him. He is currently in our foster program and will be available for adoption as soon as he gets his weight back. Otherwise, he is a very friendly fellow and well socialized.
These two Reserve dogs recently went through our Spay/Neuter program.
Emaciated and full of parasites, these deplorable dogs would still reproduce, multiplying the problem. With the consent of their owners, they will stay in our care until they are well enough to go back home. Spaying and Neutering is just one step, and a huge and expensive undertaking.
The basics like food, water and shelter must be ensured through our ongoing care, compassion and education on the reserves. Together, we are working with the First Nations people to make a difference for their animals.
