Buddy was turned into the animal shelter after having been hit by a car. He needed some pretty extensive surgery on his back end…broken pelvis, femur damage, you name it, he had it.
We had recently lost our beloved husky, Stoli, when he went on walk-about and was never heard from again. Apparently 12 years at the same residence was more than he could take. We weren’t necessarily in the “market” for a new dog, but when we were shown Buddy’s picture, it was truly love at first sight… despite the fact that he had no pants on (shaved back end all the way up to his ribs). continue reading…
Zach was only 7 weeks old when came to The S. Ford Foundation. He came into the Emergency Hospital because he was vomiting.
When Gris came to the Foundation,
Heed was just a weeks’ old kitten when he was found separated from his mother and he was brought to SFF by Animal Control. He was fostered back to health by friends of the S Ford Foundation (Chanin and Chris Scheil), then thankfully adopted by the great animal lovers Dave and Jane Ezratty when he was 2 months old. He now shares a house with 5 other cats and their dog Chewie, who thinks she’s a cat. Heed is an active and mischievous boy who spends his days bouncing off the walls and chasing imaginary butterflies. When he finally settles down for a nap, he can be found curled up with his best friends Cedric and Chewie.
Falcor was a 3 month old male puppy who was born with only part of a right front leg. He did fine with the “stump”, until he escaped from his yard and was attacked by two dogs. The attack left him clinging to life with punctured and bruised lungs and a fracture to his “stump.” Due to the severity of the fracture & the fact that he was unable to use his leg anyway, he had an amputation performed and now has 3 legs. Despite all of these terrible injuries, he is still a sweetheart and is recovering well!
