Homeless pets have hope

      Ms. Clementine was brought to Memphis Animal Shelter in terrible shape. Paws TN rescued her and is providing her with much needed medical treatment for alopecia, erythema, and crusted skin on face, legs, and paws. Thankfully, The Savior Foundation provided some funding towards her medical treatment. More funding is needed to cover the bills now and in the near future. Please help this pup!   

     Hey, we’re the Stewards! We are a young family seeking help for our 3 year old Australian Shepherd, Waylon, who was hit by a truck on Friday, October 15th. We went on our first family vacation in 5 plus years and had someone staying at our house to watch Waylon and he got away from her. He has injured both sides of his pelvis and his spine. On one side his pelvis is shattered which is the side they will amputate and the other side is dislocated from his spine. This is the leg they will do surgery on (he’s expected to have 100% mobility in this leg).  
They will not perform surgery until $5000 of the $5500 is paid. This is an emergency surgery that cannot wait or will start healing wrong.  I know that they always say “our dog is a member of our family.” and people smirk or roll their eyes. Waylon is the glue that holds our family together. He makes us better people! He makes us patient, calm, kind. When our day goes south, he is always there for us. He’s not just the best dog in the world, he is our family!
We are desperate! We want him to be able to meet us at the door again, to get in the bed with us, and at the least, be able to use the bathroom by himself again. We want more than anything to make that happen! We need your help! Please! If you can, help us get our baby the help that he so desperately needs! Your generosity will not only bring joy to Waylon’s life, but to ours! We appreciate you taking the time to read our story! Help us improve Waylon’s quality of life!   go fund me:  https://gofund.me/2ff68cf2 

    The Savior Foundation helped a small, injured kitten. A very kind person found, Ms. Lola, on the side of the road, exhausted, skinny, and with swollen paws. The Savior Foundation provided medical assistance to help with a check-up, vaccinations, and x-rays. Ms. Lola's injuries didn't slow her down. She is so full of love and loves to be held and cuddled. She is very smart and used the litter box right away. She also finds comfort in the little bed that her new mom made for her.
Ms. Lola and her mom are so thankful for all the donations from The Savior Foundation. 

     One of our long time supporters, Sonia McGrath, rescued a sweet pup from the shelter. This adorable pup is named Ivy and she suffered a horrible break in her leg. Ivy had surgery and is on her way to recovery! Unfortunately, her medical bills are extremely high. Sonia saved Ivy's life! The Savior Foundation donated towards her medical bills, but we could not cover all of the costs.  

   The Savior Foundation received a request to help an owner's pet, Tank, who was bit by another dog on his neck. The owner took Tank to the ER. Poor Tank had to have a tube put in his neck for drainage. Tank is on antibiotics and not feeling well.  Unfortunately, Tank's bite wound got severely infected. The Savior Foundation assisted with the ER bill; however, Tank is still needing follow-up care for his infected wound. Please help Tank! Click to view photos of Tank before and after his injury. Note: many photos could not be shared due to the graphic nature of his severe infection. 

   Angel was severely neglected and was crying, starved and lonely. Angel's rescuer noticed his badly infected ears infested with ear mites AND he appeared to have been struck by a car with tire marks down his fur.
The Savior Foundation stepped in and changed his life. His ears were treated, he was vaccinated and neutered. He is now a beautiful, playful cat and enjoys all the love in his Georgia home.

  The Savior Foundation pulled together a significant amount of money to help Riley with critical spinal surgery, so he could walk again. A vet neurologist confirmed the problem was IVDD and surgery could correct it. Three days post op, Riley had more movement in his back legs than he did before the surgery.  Riley had several weeks of walking and recovery. Unfortunately, Riley had to have several blood transfusions and had terminal cancer.

 Brooklyn was an unwanted sick puppy, who was thrown out of a car window.  An officer found Brooklyn and contacted The Savior Foundation, who provide funds to help treat Brooklyn. Despite having parvo, Brooklyn ended up being a happy and healthy puppy. The officer's daughter decided to adopt Brooklyn.

  Lace and her guardian were in Memphis on business when Lace had an accident.  Lace cut her leg down to the bone.  Lace needed assistance as her guardian did not have the funds available for her emergency treatment. The Savior Foundation planned a fundraising dinner to help pay for medical assistance. Lace got the needed medical treatment and is back home fully recovered.

The Savior Foundation received a call from a gentleman who needed help with his miniature pinscher, Angel, who had a broken leg. He called everywhere looking for help and no vet clinics were willing to work with him. He desperately asked us for help with his family's little Angel. The Savior Foundation helped Angel, who went into shock when she arrived at Pets Choice. She was immediately attended to for the shock and an emergency operation. Dr. William Mitchell and the Pets Choice staff cared for Angel, who is on her way to recovery.

Lily was found running the street, starving,  covered with mange, and had a bad yeast infection. A kind lady picked up Lily and took her to different facilities for help but was turned away. The Savior Foundation stepped in to give medical care and asked other rescue groups to take her after she is recovered and ready for adoption. Cold Noses Warm Hearts made room for her, because she deserved a loving home!  Cold Noses Warm Hearts and The Savior Foundation helped Lily live a healthy life and find a loving home.

This is a story of one tragic night, as with Corona, a shot rang out and an innocent dog paid the price. Read More
