4/26/23 Hello Everyone just a update " Ollie" who was found very sick and fending for himself in Miami had a tough week. He is doing better but has been with our vet for 6 days after not eating. He has advanced heartworm disease and is being treated with the slow kill method, and was severely emaciated and still needs to gain weight. Now we will put him on special gastro food.
He is going to require a very experienced foster to help him gain confidence.
Donations to cover his hospital stay and food and on going care is needed and appreciated.
4/4/23. Ollie needs a local medical foster to nurse him through his heartworm treatment, neuter and restore him to health. He will not be available for adoption until he has recovered completely.
3/28/23 He is staying at vet's office on fluids and vitamins through the weekend. "Ollie" around 4 or 5 rescued after having to be trapped in Miami gardens. He is skin and bones heartworm positive and has a old injury to his leg possible hit by car. He is scared but no aggression what so ever. Heartworm treatment alone is $1200.00 without vaccinations and and neutering down the road. He definitely needs some groceries. A number of good people helped in his rescue it takes a village. If you can donate to help cover the costs of his care we appreciate it as we have a lot of medical dogs in our care right now and others waiting for the perfect forever home.

Not every dog is available for adoption or need a foster - some are wards of the rescue (usually due to medical reasons, but sometimes behavioral). These dogs will always be supported by DRL. We welcome financial support for these dogs. Here are links to foster and adoption applications for those dogs who need a foster home or adoptive home.
