This is MacGyver. He is probably about a year old. This is either a poodle or a bichon and these dogs need to
be groomed about every six weeks and it costs about $35 to $50.
So if this is something you cannot afford then do not adopt a breed
that requires regular grooming.
As the grooming school is closed until after Labor Day the Mad
Hacker will be working on this instead. But at least he will
be clean and mat free. Check back later for an "after photo".
You can see from the top photo that we are making some progress.
He has his vet check on Thursday and he will get prettied up some
more. A poodle's coat grows very fast and he will look pretty
real soon.
I am sure you are as upset as I am looking at this photo. There is
no excuse for any dog looking like this.

This is Chico and Chica, three month old Chihuahua puppies.
Right now they both have mange and will need about two to three
months recovery. They are a cute little pair.

This is Pirette. She is a tiny Chihuahua, about six to eight
years old, maybe.
Available via the AMRT small dog adoption
program. Pirette is doing very well considering. She is about
7 and a bit shy around strangers. But she does make friends
and then she is quite nice to have around.
She weighs about four pounds. |

 Shelter fee: $17.
We fixed her cherry eyes, removed a fatty tumor, and had some dental
work done - cost $420. |
This is Betty - a ten year old beagle mix weighing about 20 pounds.
Betty's owner went to the hospital and never came back.
Neighbors fed her for three weeks and finally animal control came
and got her. They kept her two more weeks thinking
perhaps relatives would step forward to get her, but sadly that
didn't happen. She became a shelter favorite and ran out of time
on Christmas Eve. It just didn't seem fair that she should die
so they asked us to come and get her. She is quiet, potty
trained, affectionate, and generally a perfect dog. - Reason for
denial to SPCA - too old.

Update! Gretchen has arrived in Sacramento and will start a
rehabilitation program immediately. We will keep you posted
regarding her progress.
This is Gretchen, a small
pure doxie. She is emaciated and has a spinal problem that is common
to this breed.Now to be fair, the SPCA-LA did not turn this dog
away. They never saw her. We were asked to take her when she
arrived.
She will be moving to a special Doxie Rescue group in Sacramento as
soon as transport can be arranged. This rescue is particularly
successful in helping dogs with these problems.
Costs: Shelter fee - $60
Vet - Hacienda Heights Animal Hospital - $428.
