Many times at Warrick County Animal Control animals come into the facilitythat have foudn their way into a tough spot.
Macy, a senior Dachshund at nine years old was surrendered by her owners because she recently started nipping at their 4 year old son. Macy came in with a bulging eye and in a LOT of pain. She had never bitten before. They did not take her to the veterinarian for an exam and instead they surrendered her to WCAC. We immediately took her to the vet and Warrick Animal Guardians stepped in to pay for the removal of her eye due to Glaucoma. Glaucoma is a very painful disease and after her eye removal she did wonderfully. Macy has since been adopted into a home with multiple children and LOVES them all!
Hope, another senior was picked up as a stray near death and emaciated. She went straight to the vet and was given intravenous fluids, medications and radiographs. Warrick Animal Guardians fully funded the care of Hope. After a few days Hope vomited female hygeine products and through the community found out from family members she had ingested them months ago. She had been slowly starving to death! After weeks of care in a foster home she is doing much better continuing to thrive and gain weight!
Lastly, a very shocking case is Roger. A beautiful Blue Tick Coonhound that was shot with a hunting arrow for killing a chicken. He needed immediate surgery to repair the gaping wound in his neck. Warrick Animal Guardians came through for Roger and paid for his surgery! He is currently in foster care and still looking for a home.
Without Warrick Animal Guardians all of these animals would have suffered and died. Warrick Animal Guardians will continue to try to help as many animals as we can but will need the continued support from donors like you!
