SOME WORDS FROM WILSON..... Thanks to all who have given so generously. The outpouring of support made my Christmas a happy one. I am recovering well and will hopefully find my forever home soon. Love and big Dober kiss from Wilson the Wonder Boy

PUPPIES, PUPPIES EVERYWHERE!..... Hi, this is Garland, Vixen, Eve, and Holly. Oh, and we also have a brother, Donner, but he is too sick to tell his story. And, oh, my gosh, it's Christmas, and we've been so sick that we didn't get to wait up for Santa, or spend the holidays in a forever home. First, we got parvo, which required us to spend a lot of time at the vet's office. . . and let us tell you, that isn't a lot of fun. Miraculously, we all survived parvo, but then we all came down with upper respiratory infections. We girls are all doing pretty well, but our brother isn't doing so well. Donner doesn't just have an upper respiratory infection anymore, he now has this thing called "pneumonia." We're worried about him because our new foster mom has to use all this scary stuff on him. She says that he has to have IV fluids, nebulizer treatment, and lots of meds. Although our foster mom says all this stuff will help Donner, we think it is all just scary looking and we're worried because right now Donner has lost two pounds and won't eat or drink. We're very scared that we might lose our brother. Sure, boys are a pain, but everyone needs a snotty little brother. Please send your prayers this holiday season that we won't lose Donner. Oh, one more thing, our foster mom also says that taking care of us is "expensive." We don't really know what that means, but if you do, could you please help out with that. There isn't much we can do to fix that "expensive" thing, but we sure hope some of you nice people can help! A note from the volunteers of HMDD – thus far, the puppies care has totaled over $1,500. If they make it through these next few weeks, they will have no long-term medical problems from the Parvo and will make
their forever homes happy and joyful. In addition to your financial support, we really do need Divine intervention. If you can't send money, please remember our little ladies and guy in your prayers. You can make a donation by sending a check or money order to HMDD PO Box 12325, Columbus, Ohio 43212-0325 or you can make a secure payment online by clicking the donate button using PayPal which takes checks and all credit cards. All donations are tax deductable.
