We have another HH Helps pup! Remy was recently diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma by Dr. Sones at Animal Cancer Care Clinic. He has a relatively good prognosis with chemotherapy and a horrible prognosis without it. He will be going through 16 treatments over the next several months, so you can imagine the cost. Dr. Sones and HH agreed that he was just the kind of dog who should benefit from our...

We welcome sweet Luna into our Houndhaven Helps family. Her owner reached out on facebook for help, and one of our volunteers directed her to Dr. Peck for Luna's ACL surgery. Dr. Peck determined Luna was a candidate for our help, and Luna had her surgery last Tuesday. She is now at home and is reported to be doing well and obeying Dr. Peck's orders. Good girl, Luna  

Gabi nka Abby went to her forever home last November. After about three weeks she started showing signs of severe separation anxiety when her dad went to work. He was devastated, thinking that he wasn't providing her the right environment. We talked, and he agreed to try to work with her and get her past this issue. And he has been true to his word! We hired a behaviorist to meet with Abby and...

Max had some NASTY ears, and all his owners' attempts to clean them and treat them were in vain. Thankfully, Dr. Schwassman saw that they needed to be cleaned from the inside out and we were able to make that deep middle ear cleaning possible. These are the before pictures of Max's poor ears--you can see why he desperately needed this treatment! Thanks to our donors, Max is now feeling MUCH...

Sweet Ember is the latest beneficiary of Houndhaven Helps. She was brought in with a possible GI obstruction and needed emergency surgery. Her owners were willing to pay all the money they had to try to save her, but it wasn't enough. Because of our donors, we were able to say, "HELP HER!", and they did. Instead of an obstruction, they found a bullet and an abdomen full of blood. If it hadn't...

Bentley is the latest dog who is benefitting from our Houndhaven Helps project. He was found as a stray by Halifax Humane Society when he was 8 months old. His new family fell in love with his sweet disposition and was told his terrible condition was due to mange. After months of treating him for mange with no improvement, their vet referred them to wonderful Dr. Schwassman at Veterinary...

Mooshi may look tough, but he is a big moosh. Hence the name. He was minding his own business when he was violently attacked by another dog. Mooshi was left with a broken leg, a punctured abdomen and numerous bites and scratches, some requiring stitches. The good news for Mooshi is that a former HH volunteer witnessed the attack and took him to get the veterinary care he urgently needed. And,...

Meet Bubba. Bubba, being a lab, found himself what he considered a tasty treat. Unfortunately, it was a corn cob. What Bubba didn't know (or maybe forgot in the heat of passion) was that corn cobs don't come out as easily as they went in. We at Houndhaven learned that lesson from a yellow lab named Lex many years ago. Suffice it to say that Bubba's owners were faced with an expensive surgery to...

Less than a week into the inception of our new mission to help dogs get needed medical care (which we are calling "Houndhaven Helps"), we have helped our first dog. This sweet boy was adopted from Houndhaven almost 8 years ago. His mama has treated him for a variety of ailments through the years including ACL surgery on both legs, Horner's Syndrome, allergies, neurological disease and now...

Kelsi will be starting the new year in a new home. She has been adopted by a couple who has previously adopted three HH dogs. All three have passed, and they were ready for a new lab to love. They fell in love with Kelsi, and even when she was diagnosed with a malignant mast cell tumor, they still wanted to adopt her. Poor Kelsi has been spayed, had a dental cleaning and had a surgery to remove...

Our sweet boy Bruno got his Christmas wish for a forever home.  His new home is in a lovely neighborhood in College Park where everyone walks so he will be meeting many new friends….dogs and people. His new parents are a delightful young couple who recently moved to Orlando from Tennessee and have been looking for a young, large dog to accompany them on their strolls.  They wanted a dog who...

Sweet Biddy found her forever home so quickly that she never even made it onto our website.  One of our volunteers had a feeling that Biddy would be the perfect match for her neighbor.  He came to an adoption event to meet her and our volunteer was right—he and Biddy were a great fit.   The two are now enjoying companionship, walks, and lots of love.  Congratulations to them both.             ...
