Tammy Faye has opted to stay in her foster home as she has ongoing health concerns that will need to be addressed regularly. If you would like to make a donation toward her care, it would be very much appreciated.
Tammy Faye is a precious 15 year old blue merle female sheltie that was turned into a Kansas Kill Shelter by her family that claimed they could not afford her grooming needs. She has never been a house dog but she is catching on to this luxury life fast since joining our organization. It appears her medical needs were not seen to either. She has multiple health concerns that we are addressing. In all honesty, most likely we will never place her for adoption, but continue to love her and see that she is given all the Comfort Care she requires.
If you are one of those people who would like to offer this type of long term foster care for a senior dog in need, please contact us for details. There are never enough volunteers to help rescues with this need and SSR is no exception.
TAMMY FAYE'S CASE IS ONE OF THOSE CASES WHEN WE COULD CERTAINLY USE DONATIONS TO ASSIST WITH VETERINARY CARE. SHELTIE SHACK RESCUE OF KANSAS IS COMPASSIONATE ABOUT SENIOR DOGS AND WHILE WE WANT TO CONTINUE OUR POLICY TO NOT TURN THEM AWAY DUE TO LACK OF ADOPTABILITY OR POTENTIAL FINANCIAL BURDENS, YOUR GENEROSITY WILL ALLOW US TO CONTINUE OUR PASSION HELPING THEM.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE MEDICAL NEEDS THAT WE ARE FACING WITH THIS PRECIOUS LIL GIRL, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US.
REMEMBER, ALL DONATION ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE AND WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION FOR YOUR TAX PREPARER.
THANK YOU.
