Little Coco

Little Coco is the beloved companion to a senior woman living on social security. They have been best friends for many years, but Coco had two cancerous mammary tumors threatening this beautiful relationship. ART was able to collect $433 to assist the woman and her son, who also contributed to Coco’s medical care. Coco was spayed and had surgery to remove the tumors. She is now recovering with her mama.

Penny

Little Penny is another dog who was helped by ART. A few weeks ago, Penny’s rectum prolapsed. Unfortunately, her mama had very limited income from social security. She has already paid for one surgery that did not work due to complications. Penny belonged to this woman’s son, but she became her primary caregiver and had grown very attached to Penny. Through the help of our donors and sustaining members, ART was able to raise $535 to get sweet Penny the surgery needed to save her life.

Bella

Through the help of our generous donors, Bella received the care she needed to overcome an unfortunate injury. Poor Bella was burned by a busted hot water heater. Her owner took her to the emergency vet, but could not afford the care needed to treat the burn. Bella needed reconstructive surgery. ART was able to help pay for the treatment thanks to our donors and sustaining members.
