Admiral and Lola hit by cars and need your help!

In less than one week, the Oklahoma German Shepherd Rescue has taken in two dogs who have been hit by cars and need surgery. All rescues are inundated with animals and vet bills right now due to the rising number of animals abandoned, left in shelters, and surrendered.

We need your help!!

We could not say no to these dogs in need, but our vet bills are rising. Now we have taken on another large expense for these two dogs.

Admiral (pictured) was found 8/1/23 by the Tulsa PD on I244. He was bleeding and had exposed bone from a nasty leg fracture. Good samaritans stopped to help him and TPD contacted OKGSR. He was rushed to the emergency vet for x-rays and to stabilize him. This alone cost the rescue about $1500. We found out one leg is fractured and the other has ligament damage, so he will need surgery on both hind legs. We have transferred him to another vet partner for surgery and he has said that tentatively prognosis is good. Despite being in immense pain and covered in ticks, Admiral is a sweet boy. He allowed rescuers to lift him and gave kisses once he was loaded up, knowing he was safe! We will update once we have an estimate for his surgery. The current estimate from the vet is approximately $2000 for the ligament damage (a lateral collateral tear; if there is no additional damage to his ACL) and about $1500-2000 for the open fracture repair. These estimates do not include his current stay at the vet. Admiral is young about 3 years old and deserves a fighting chance!

Lola is our second German Shepherd we need your help with. She is only 9 months old. She was hit by a car and taken to a shelter. She sat in the shelter for days waiting for her family to come get her, but despite the shelter being able to contact them, they never did. Due to her injuries, she was scheduled to be euthanized. However, with the help of an awesome foster OKGSR was able to save her from euthanasia. The estimate for her surgery to save her leg is $2500.
