Meet Grace. She's a 4 year old dachshund who came to Tiny Paws a month after an injury that resulted in paralyzed hind quarters because of lack of treatment. Tiny Paws wants to give Grace every chance for a full recovery, but we need your help to do that.
One in four dachshunds will have an issue with their back in their lifetime. Treatment is either surgery within 48 hours of injury, or more conservative treatment of 8 weeks of crate rest and steroids. Grace received neither with her original owners. Understandably, not everyone can afford the costly surgery; however, Grace did not receive the necessary crate rest and was allowed to drag herself around. Grace is currently paralyzed in the hindquarters and incontinent.
Hi! I'm Grace - I'm resting in my crate between treatments.
I've hurt my back and need to heal - Can you help?
Adoption fees are based on the age of the dog being adopted:
Under 3 years of age - $325
3-8 years of age - $300
Over 9 years of age - $225
Tiny Paws Dog Rescue also requires a minimum mandatory surrender fee of $50 for all owners surrendering their dogs to our organization.
These fees help to offset our ever-increasing costs to provide quality veterinary care to our dogs prior to adoption, as well as the difficult and challenging economic times which have affected the amount of private donations we receive from the public.
