Supporting Rico and Lady

Donation protected
I recently purchased the old “Woof and Purr Inn”, a boarding kennel.  We inherited two surrendered dogs with the kennel, Rico an approximately 10-year old Pitbull Mix (pictured above) and his “sister” Lady, an approximately 8-year old Pitbull Mix (pictured below). 
 
Their owner was diagnosed with brain cancer over a year ago.  She was boarding them until she recovered.  Sadly, she never did.  Lady and Rico have been at the kennel for over a year.  They get to see all the other boarding dogs go home to their families while time after time, they never do. We are doing everything we can to change that and get Rico and Lady their very own “Forever Homes”.
 
We are in the process of working with a behaviorist who is evaluating them and will give us a program we can follow so that, hopefully, they can be adopted.  Currently they are enjoying their new beds, blankets, toys, chews, loving attention and petting.  They were fine with collars, leashes and short walks.  Our next step is to get them into the play yard for some “freedom” and fun. 
 
Lady and Rico both need medical attention.  Rico is incredibly thin, has an eye infection and sores.  He required a full work-up with x-rays.  Lady will go in for her check-up and bloodwork next week. We are ONLY asking for donations to cover their vet bills and the consultations with the behaviorist.  We are more than happy to provide the rest.  We don’t want additional money. Any support is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!  Petra and Patty of Playful Paws at Petra’s
