Sammy's Fund
Contributions to the Sammy Fund will go towards specific medical diagnostics and operations for our special needs dogs. Common examples of these procedures are cataract removal, ear canal surgery, removal of mammary tumors, bladder stone removal. This fund was inspired by Sammy, who had his eyesight restored through surgery and was happily placed in a loving home
Charlotte Fund for Heartworm
Contributions to the Charlotte Fund will go specifically for heartworm pills and treatment for the OBG dogs, as well as for educational pamphlets. Unfortunately OBG has seen many dogs come in with heartworm, for which treatment starts at $400 and goes up depending upon the extent of infestation and other complications. This fund was inspired by Charlotte, a darling little 3 year old who succumbed to heartworm after putting up a brave fight.
