Hi Everyone,
Dusty has come through his bladder stone surgery and doing well! He had six bladder stones and a very irritated bladder and urinary tract. Poor little Dusty, abandoned at the shelter after his owner could no longer care for him, and being in such bad shape himself! Thankfully we were able to do the diagnostics to find out why he was in so much pain and doing so poorly. Now we need to pay the vet bills. Please consider donating for Dusty's veterinary care. Please see Dusty's photo and information on how to donate in the column to the left.
K-9 PALS is always seeking:
Volunteers to provide foster and adoption promotion of a dog for K-9 PALS, and
Volunteers to organize and work on fundraising projects and events.

Skoshi came into the shelter with large tumors in her abdomen. K9 PALS made her one of our sanctuary dogs and found her a foster home for her to be comfortable in, because the tumor was thought to be cancerous. We then consulted a specialist, and found that we could get an operation done to remove the tumors. We just had the surgery done and it cost ~1270$. Skoshi has a new "leash" on life, but we need help paying the bills. Please consider donating to Skoshi's medical funds.
Penelope came into the shelter in a neglected state. K9 PALS got her surgery to have masses removed and dental surgery to fix up her teeth. Penelope has been adopted but we are still paying the bills from her surgeries. Please considering donating to K-9 PALS to help fund Penelope's and other dogs medical costs.
March 15th, 2013
Medical Costs Updates for 2013
So far in 2013 K-9 PALS has incurred veterinary care, food, medications expenses totaling $19,800. The dogs listed below are those that we are providing for now, and or have received requests to provide for - still needing donations and funding for:
Banana is in foster with one of our volunteers and healing up from bilateral cherry eye surgery and dental. We are seeking donations and funding to cover cost of her surgery: $566.
Penelope, now happily adopted. K-9 PALS provided surgery for mass removal, dental surgery and grooming: $832.
Scooter, county shelter dog, developed severe skin and issues from allergies and county shelter asked for K-9 PALS to take on the medical issues to diagnose and treat. He is now on a long course of antigen shots, antibiotics, and prescription food. Veterinary costs to us: $632. Most of his allergy issues will resolve once he is in a better environment so, really he needs to be in a foster home, or adopted!
Skoshi was adopted out of the shelter into K-9 PALS Sanctuary Dog Program, and put into a forever home. Since then another veterinarian was consulted, and discussed with her foster mom the possibility and benefit of going ahead with surgery that could add a few more years to her life. Skoshi had the surgery last week and she is feeling great, ready to play and lead a normal life. We are needing help to raise donations to help pay the veterinary bills of $1,270.
Peaches was hospitalized after becoming seriously ill in the county shelter. Peaches is a senior miniature poodle whose owner had died and she was abandoned at the shelter.
Diagnostics, I.V. fluids, medications were administered and diagnostics were done to discover the cause. Vet care costs to us: $1,210. All tests came back normal. Assessment is that Peaches' illness was from stress at the shelter. Peaches will remain in a foster home until she is adopted.
K-9 PALS is continuing to provide physical therapy for Buttercup and she will remain in foster with one of our volunteers for as long as needed. Monthly cost to us: $280.
Monthly average costs for prescription foods and special diets for dogs we provide for: $1,400.
January 2013
Sweet little Cherry Pie had to have surgeries to correct her prolapsed inner eyelids in both eyes! We are all very excited and happy to announce that Cherry Pie was adopted!, but we also still NEED DONATIONS! to pay for previous medical bills from when we saved her from her near death experience with the parvo virus that kills puppies unless they receive aggressive and expensive vet care. Please consider making a donation to K-9 PALS to start off your New Year with a gift to abandoned dogs.

Sweet little DOODLE came into the shelter in terrible shape, matted and filthy, which is easy to fix with a good clip and a bath, but he had really infected teeth. So K-9 PALS provided dental surgery, and he had to have 16 teeth extracted because they were rotten so not only were they causing him pain but really a health issue for the little guy. Please help Doodle by clicking on our donate button so K-9 PALS can keep providing medical care to these very deserving dogs!

Goood News for ANTONIO! We are finally able to get his leg surgery done. We know his knee was giving him pain for a long time, probably since birth. Antonio is doing great now in his foster home with K-9 PALS volunteers andd K9 foster home buddies. Midnight would have died without the extensive and expensive medical care, Billy AND Lady Bug would have also died without extensive medical care. Please help us pay for the medical care for Midnight, Billy, and Antonio, and many more. Without donations to K-9 PALS, saving the lives and eliminating their pain and suffering of these very sweet dogs would not be possible. http://www.k-9pals.org/

VERA had rough irritated looking mass on her neck/chest area and the vet. said it needed to removed and biopsied so K-9 PALS took care of having it done. The mass was benign and Vera is feeling much better now and so are we. Thankfully for Vera there is a very benevolent donor to assist K-9 PALS with her surgery costs. Thank you to Chrissie's Fund! Please consider being a K-9 PALS donor so that we can help more dogs!

MIDNIGHT smiling! 3 months now from her almost fatal accident on the highway, saved by dedicated Lompoc AS officers, and funds from K-9 PALS donors. Think "donate saves lives" and YOU can help save lives. http://www.k-9pals.org/
Midnight's Story
This sweet, beautiful, amazing dog, victim of a devastating accident, Midnight was run over by a vehicle and lying injured on the highway. Lompoc Animal Services Officers took her to hospital and called K-9 PALS for help. She had a crushed pelvis and broken leg so was unable to walk and in excruciating pain. We enlisted the help of veterinary staff and surgeon, and friends. Everyone fell in love with her. The extensive complicated surgery has been done, she's been receiving physical therapy, and now she's walking again! Now we need your help to raise funds for her medical care, the cost is $6,900.

K-9 PALS IS URGENTLY SEEKING DONATIONS FOR MERCEDES. Mercedes is a very sweet 8 yr old female Boxer who arrived at the shelter with a horrible mass in her mouth which inhibited her ability to eat. She was emcaciated and had terrible gastrointestinal issues, and then she also became sicker with some other undiagnosed health issues. So K-9 PALS stepped in to have surgery done on her mouth, hospitalization, diagnostics, then another surgery to remove fox tails that were deep in her nasal passages. Mercedes is now finally healthy again. PLEASE donate for her veterinary care.

DOMINO - Please donate for little Domino to help pay for veterinary care costs. Domino was suffering from painful, chronic severely infected nasal blockage. His nasal passages were so terribly infected and painful that surgery was required twice
to find and remove blockages that were possibly fox tails or masses. The obstructions were so deep and hard to reach in his tiny nasal passage that they had to be removed by a specialist. K-9 PALS arranged for Domino's surgeries and paid for all his veterinary care. Thankfully the removed masses were benign, and he is healthy now and looking for a forever home. K-9 PALS and is now seeking donations to pay for the expenses incurred for Domino's veterinary care and medications. The bills to K-9 PALS for Domino's care are $1,152. Please donate to the care of Domino by going to

MANDY, an 20-month old happy, alert, energetic German Shepherd mix pup, entered the SB shelter limping after being hit by a car. When she was examined by a vet hospital, they found a deep and infected old wound in her foot. K-9 PALS paid for the diagnostics, reconstructive foot surgery, and hospitalization. Her medical foster family fell in love and ended up adopting her!

COLETTE'S story started out scary, and ended up a very Happy Tail, thank to K-9 PALS!
The last thing this poor girl remembered was running terrified into traffic, then agonizing pain This tiny 8 pound one year old poodle puppy was hit by a car shattering her back leg. Thank goodness a good Samaritan found her and took her to get help right away.
Colette needed surgery right away and it will cost about $3,000. The shelter does not have the resources to pay for these kinds of medical expenses that is where K-9 PALS comes in. The shelter supervisor called K-9 PALS and asked if we could help save her life by paying for her surgery. We took one look at that sad little face and said yes!
Colette had her surgery and came through with flying colors. Now we need to pay her $3,000 bill, can you help?

Poor PENNY then (BUT HAPPY TAIL NOW)...Imagine how it would be to be a tiny 8 pound dog and wake up one day in the County shelter kennel with a temperature of 94 degrees, lethargic, not eating, and very dehydrated. What happened? County shelter staff did not know and didn't have the funds to find out, so they asked K-9 PALS to pay for emergency hospital care, diagnostics, and medical treatments. Because of help from K-9 PALS, PENNY's life was saved ! She is now on on the road to recovery.
You can help PENNY by donating to K-9 PALS. Every dollar donated will go towards helping PENNY or another homeless county shelter dog who may find themselves in a similar situation.
