A Fairytale ending for COOPER and Buttons

Read Their Happy
ending
2008 IS GOING TO BE
GREAT!!
First, I want to thank everyone for all their
support and referrals. It’s always wonderful to place a
pooch with someone who’s been referred to us by a happy
adopter!
2007 was most definitely the biggest
financial challenge in all of Bichons and Buddies’ history.
Moving into 2008 my goal is to replenish our operating funds
and to quickly pay off our outstanding vet bills.
To recap our challenges in 2007, you will
recall the beginning of the year brought Cooper, our
amazing, heroic bionic dog with more metal in him than the
space shuttle. As you may remember he had gotten hit by a
car and left to languish at the shelter in pain with
multiple factures of the pelvis and leg. His surgery was
the most expensive we’ve ever undertaken…..until
Sweet, beautiful Buttons. Another car
victim, only this poor girl ended up in one of worst of the
LA County shelters where she was left to rot away in a cage
with the same injuries as Cooper….only much worse. Her
urethra was trapped between the fragments of bone which
started to fuse. It was an incredibly lengthy and
painstaking procedure which required a battery of tests in
addition to the surgery. You can read
both their happy ending stories by clicking the link at the
top of this page.
Then since we seemed to be having such
success with fixing broken dogs, two other little ones with
broken legs found their way to our care which of course
required orthopedic repair. Also,
check out the Available link and read about Mikey who had a
tumor in his right hind leg and had to have it amputated.
All in all it was a real bank buster and by
the end of this year I started to feel like the B of J.
