APRA is in an emergency state due to the intake of very sick dogs during the first week of August. Many of these dogs are heartworm positive, require immediate eye care, and most are victims of backyard breeding with medical concerns yet to be addressed.
 |
Update
All nine of the rescues have now received the medical attention they so desperately needed. Three have heartworm disease and are receiving their premedication for one month prior to treatment. One has had her eye removed and all are on antibiotics for a variety of reasons. Thank you to all who have supported our efforts in this rescue mission. We will continue to need your help as we provide for their care over the coming months.

The above four angels were recently rescued from what could have been the horror of the life of back yard breeders. They are all fortunate enough to have been moved early in their lives and we now want to assure them nothing but the best. All four have required some socialization (well, maybe not Ruth!) but have quickly learned to return the affection that has been shown them. They are all working on their potty habits with great success but it will take patience and consistency. Kit-Kat and Sonny have some corneal scars from poor eye care but all have vision in both eyes. We estimate these four to be approximately three years of age. If you are interested in adoption please complete an application. |
Please consider making a donation for their care. Donations may also be made directly to our veterinary clinic,
280 Animal Medical Center at 205-678-8253.

Meet some of the latest rescues this Sunday at PetSmart in Alabaster! Though many of our adoptable rescues will be in attendance, we do not do public adoptions. Come by and meet all of them and learn about the adoption process. Many planning to attend are not yet featured on this site but will be in the very near future.
|
|
Due to the health and numbers of rescues currently under our care, APRA will be limiting intake indefinitely.
If you can, open your home and your heart to a rescue in need of foster care,
Please Contact pugsrescued@aol.com

We are very proud of our excellence in veterinary resources and highly recommend 280 Animal Medical Center for all of your veterinary and grooming needs.
Their expertise expands beyond the medical needs of the dog. They continually support our mission by understanding the emotional needs of the rescue and adoptive home as well.
For veterinary care that expands beyond the office visit, choose 280 AMC "for the life of the dog."
