Hi, I'm Tami Murphy an animal advocate and I’m raising funds for Saving Gizmos Friends, a dedicated organization committed to saving at-risk dogs from high-kill shelters in the Greater Los Angeles area. Each donation helps provide a lifeline to these vulnerable animals, giving them a second chance at life and love. Together, we can make a significant difference in their lives and ensure they find their forever homes.

Your support helps Saving Gizmos Friends make a difference by contributing towards efforts like:

Please join me in supporting this vital cause. Your contribution, no matter how small, will bring hope and healing to these deserving dogs. Let’s change lives together!

My name is Tami Hulett Murphy, an animal advocate. I'm asking for donations for Saving Gizmo's Friends Foundation. Cassandra Mann has always taken on severe medical cases for dogs in need. In January of this year, she took on an abuse case involving over 50 dogs. Many of them needed to be hospitalized and rehabilitated. She contributed over $150,000 of her own money for the medical care of these dogs.

Today, Courage, an Australian Cattledog, had surgery for multiple fractures in his rear right leg. This dog was going to be euthanized. I called Cassandra desperately asking for help. Even though she was over her budget, she helped get this dog the medical treatment he needed. Just 6 months ago, she helped me with a small Chihuahua that had the same type of fractures. Just these two surgeries alone cost her over $20,000. These examples are just a fraction of the medical rescues she has done. She is truly an angel on this earth for our shelter and abandoned animals.

You can look up Saving Gizmo's Friends Foundation and you will see the incredible rescues that she has conducted. Not only does she pay for the medical treatment, but she also pays for transporting animals out of state to find the best homes possible for them. She also helps other rescues when they are in need. She is all about helping these dogs and making sure they are healthy and ready for their forever homes. These dogs only go to the best homes. She is very selective as to where they go. She doesn't hesitate to transport them out of state if it means it will be the best for them. Not to mention her participation in spay and neutering programs. She gets dogs behavioral training if needed. It's all about the dogs.

Please donate to her foundation so she can continue to do the amazing work that is needed during this horrendous crisis within our shelters and the communities where dogs are being dumped every day. Thank you in advance for donating to this worthy cause.

Help Sweet Nova Get the Care She Deserves

Meet Nova, a bright, loving 13-week-old husky puppy who’s already endured more than most dogs face in a lifetime. She was brought to the Moreno Valley Shelter with a painful condition, initially thought to be a leg injury from a car accident. But her story turned out to be far more complex, and heartbreaking.

Loves Legacy Rescue pulled Nova from the shelter, and after seeing that her X-rays showed no actual injury, they realized her condition would require far more care than they could manage, so they connected with Cassandra from Saving Gizmos Friends, who generously stepped in to fund her urgent medical treatment.

After an MRI at MASH (Metropolitan Animal Specialty Hospital), it was revealed that Nova isn’t dealing with a broken bone, but a severe, progressive muscle inflammation. This rare condition is preventing her from bending her leg and growing properly. Her pain worsens every day as her bones outpace her muscle development.

She underwent extensive diagnostics including:

• MRI and EMG to identify the muscle damage – $3,678.37

• Muscle biopsy and lab work to test for infections like neospora – $2,354.41

• And she now faces a necessary leg amputation surgery, with costs ranging between $9,200 and $12,563 ( Updated estimates as of June 17th from Animal Orthopedic Clinic : Low Total: $4,493.73 High Total: $5,125.56

But Nova’s journey doesn’t stop there, after surgery, she will need ongoing physical therapy at the California Animal Rehabilitation (CARE) center to regain strength and adjust to life as a tripod. Your donations will also help cover the cost of this critical rehab care.

Despite everything, Nova is full of life and affection. She loves cuddles, gives sweet kisses, and remains a playful, joyful spirit. With your help, we can give Nova the pain-free, happy life she deserves.

Please consider donating to help cover Nova’s medical bills and post-surgery care, including physical therapy.

Helping Saving Gizmos Friends with this large cost, we will help get Nova back on her paws and into the loving future she deserves.

It takes a village, thank you for being part of hers.
