Greyhound Mink Needs Your Help!
Tax deductible
Mink is a recently retired racing greyhound. Only 1 1/2 years old, this little girl was taken in by Greyhound Rescue & Rehab, a 501c3 not-for-profit organization.
Mink is a sweet little girl and we were getting ready for her to find her forever home when her foster parents noticed she wasn’t acting right. She was lethargic, not interested in going for walks, and was reluctant to eat. That’s just not Minker’s personality. When they took her temperature, they found she had a fever of 104! Without any further wait, she was taken to a 24/7 ER hospital close by.
An emergency ultrasound was quickly performed and we were advised that Mink needed abdominal surgery as there was a large pocket of, what appeared to be fluid. On Monday, June 15th, Mink had her surgery and a large, inflamed hematoma was removed. It was most likely a complication from her recent spay. Mink recovered well post-op but the bill for her care since being taken in by GRR is approaching $5,000.
Greyhound Rescue & Rehab was founded in 2000 and has helped rehome over 1,700 retired racing greyhounds. We've often taken in hounds that need surgery for racing injuries or other additional care, but Mink is a special case.
We didn’t think twice when we were told the estimated cost, because you can’t put a price on a life. We are reaching out to all you animal lovers to help Mink.
Thank you so much for your donation, which allows GRR to continue to rehome these amazing animals.
