Taz #3

Adopted!

We would like to thank everyone who has so graciously donated toward helping us help sweet Taz. Unfortunately, he has had a setback in his recovery. About six weeks after the hip replacement on his left hip, the implant popped out of position and he had to have a second surgery in order to put the implant back in place. This happened just after Taz had started to use his new hip. This poor guy seems to have the worst luck! This second surgery, although not quite as expensive as the first one, was an unexpected shock to VGSR's checking account. We have also been boarding him in an animal hospital so that we don't take any chance of him re-injuring the implant. He is now recuperating from the second surgery to his left hip. After the implant is good and solid, we need to replace his right hip, which is actually in worse shape than the left one was prior to surgery. Even though Taz has really been through the wringer, he is still our happy, tail waggin', face lickin' lover boy. We would so appreciate your continued support to help get us through his upcoming surgery. Most rescues would have euthanized him, but if you met him, you would know why we have made every effort to make him whole. He is truly a special dog that really, really, deserved this chance. Your donations are tax deductible and we are very happy to receive donations through Paypal. Taz asked me to tell you how much he appreciates your help! SLVA VGSR Tag #1659 Adopted: 12/01/06.
