Heavenly Angels Animal Rescue Inc

Hi, my name is Eevee. I’m a 6 month old southern belle from Louisiana.  I don’t remember much about my original family, because when I was born, I felt sick all the time. I didn’t want to eat much, and my brothers and sisters would shove me out of the way, so I got weaker and weaker. I guess my mom didn’t like me much, because she didn’t do a thing to help me. There were some humans who would bring food, but they didn’t help me either. One day, the man owner picked me up and took me away from the other puppies. I was so happy, because I thought he was going to take me to the vet to see why I didn’t feel so good. But he didn’t. He put me in the car and we drove away and the next thing I knew, I was in a giant box filled with garbage. Garbage! I heard the man’s car driving away and I was so scared. Even though my mom and siblings weren’t nice to me, this was worse! I was cold and shivering and I didn’t even have a blanket! I tried to climb out and see if I could find my way back home, but I kept slipping on the trash. It smelled so bad in there! I started to cry and I guess I was crying really loudly, because suddenly I heard some voices getting closer. I didn’t know if I should be quiet, or cry louder. Were the voices coming to help me? Or hurt me? I decided to be brave and yelled as loud as I could for a 6 week old puppy. It worked! Some really nice kids found me! I could see they were confused and shocked to find a puppy in a dumpster, mixed in with last night’s rotting dinner, but they reached in and pulled me out. One little boy tucked me under his shirt to warm me up. I know I didn’t smell so good and I felt bad that they had to see me like this. They ran home with me and their really nice mom took me to something called a shelter. I heard the nice people who worked there whispering about me and one girl seemed so sad. She was telling the others that they really wouldn’t be able to take care of me because I was so sick and they would have to put me to sleep. WHAT?? I was only 6 weeks old and had never gotten to do any of the things that other dogs and puppies get to do. I never even had a family of my own! I guess I was just going to die without ever being loved. I stopped crying and just got ready to die. 




But, the girls started making phone calls and a wonderful thing happened! One of them said they found a rescue up in New York that would take me and help me get better!! I wasn’t going to die!! I didn’t know what a rescue was, but they wanted ME! 




I made the trip to NY became part of the Heavenly Angels family. They took good care of me and brought me to a vet. I stayed in a home with nice people who kept me warm and tried to make me a chunky puppy. 




But, I still didn’t feel good most of the time. I started drooling all the time! It was so embarrassing! And my head hurt. A lot. It would help if I pressed it hard against a wall. My Aunt Lori from Heavenly Angels knew this wasn’t a good thing, so she took me to a special doctor who poked and prodded me. I was a really good girl and let him do whatever he needed to do, because I was tired of not feeling so good. It turns out I have something called a liver shunt. I’m not sure what that means, but I like liver, so I don’t know why it would be hurting me. 




So on Tuesday, I’ll be going to Dr. Infernuso out on Long Island to get my liver fixed. I feel really bad, because it’s going to cost a lot of money. A LOT. Like $5,000. Heavenly Angels has taken such good care of me, but they’re a very small rescue and I know they’re very worried about paying for it. It means so much that they want to help me, even though they can’t afford it. 




I know it’s a lot to ask, but we could sure use some donations to help pay for this. I don’t even expect anyone to help because if my own family didn’t want me and threw me away, why would complete strangers help me? 




I had a really bad life so far, but hopefully after this, I’ll be able to run and play and not feel sick anymore.

Sophie is proof that animal rescues save lives.

On April 13, after a difficult labor and surgery, she gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Now she needs help paying her medical bills.

But her story begins well before her daughter was born. 

Sophie was picked up as a stray in Louisiana. In her first checkup, we discovered she has a poorly healed broken femur, as well as heartworm. Heartworm is treatable, but treatment can be expensive and complicated. But Heavenly Angels Animal Rescue said yes.

In March, Sophie was transported to a foster in Brooklyn and the rescue began to work on a heartworm treatment schedule. However, before the medication could be started, we discovered that Sophie was pregnant!

Sophie moved to a new foster in New Jersey. Despite her background as a stray, her physical conditions, and her life upheavals, she is a sweet, charming, low key dog. 

After a difficult early labor, Sophie began to give birth early on April 13. But her first baby was stillborn, breech, and stuck in place. She was rushed to an emergency vet, where we discovered that she also has a poorly healed broken pelvis that would prevent her from naturally birthing any surviving puppies. Most likely, she was hit by a car when younger and has been doing her absolute best with crooked bones since then.

Her surgery revealed that her heartworm is more advanced than expected, but it also resulted in a healthy baby girl who is expected to thrive!

If Sophie had stayed a stray in Louisiana, giving birth could easily have led to a long, painful death. And if it didn't, the heartworm surely would.

She and her baby now both have the chance to enjoy long lives in loving adoptive homes. 

But her emergency care was expensive, and the rescue is funded entirely by donations. Please consider helping to defray the costs of 24 hours of emergency medical care, which are expected to be around $7,000.

Tiny, 15 lb Riley was the victim of a dog attack.

Heavenly Angels Animal Rescue is fighting for her because this small girl, is a fighter. Her condition is critical. She is getting the best medical care but we need your help to continue.

Riley is such a sweet girl, she even tried to get off the table to go to her foster mama but was in no shape to do so.

No amount is too small. Please help us help her. Estimate of cost from VERG will follow in the updated pics.

Thank you and please say a prayer for our girl.
