Faith, bless her heart, is a 4 year old Collie who came to us from Leavenworth Kansas. She is beyond badly malnourished and looks a lot like a Mexican hairless dog, sigh. She eats like a Hobbit, having a breakfast, second breakfast and so on, all day long. Small meals are helpful to undernourished dogs. Faith's bloodwork is awful. We have added some supplements and will recheck her reticulacyte count in a week to make sure we are making some progress on juvenile red cells hopefully turning into mature red cells. Her 34 pound frame needs to increase slowly to around 50 pounds, to make her a small but healthy girl.

 

Faith needs your support. She needs a loving long-term foster home where she can relax and get well and strong. She needs every resource RMCSR has in terms of money for veterinary specialists in dermatology and internal medicine. And she needs prayers that she has the fortitude to keep fighting.

 

We love Faith. She is the reason we do dog rescue. Please consider donating on behalf of our courageous Faith!
