Blondie -Donations Needed/Statesville

Donations Urgently Needed to help us with the care of this sweet Cocker Girl. She has several vet needs that we must address. Please donate to CCR, P.O. Box 1050, Kannapolis, NC 28081 or you can call it into our rescue vet, Cabarrus Animal Hospital at (704)786-6102 and tell them you want to make a donation to Charlotte Cocker Rescue, Donna Carpenters account. Your kindness is appreciated, and no amount is too small. Meet Blondie, a 5- to 7-year-old reddish buff Cocker Girl fostering in Statesville. She came to us from a NC Shelter. They said she was running around as a stray and covered in fleas. She was given multiple baths and had whipworms which needed treatment. They guessed her to be 4 to 5 years old, but our vet said that she is older as indicated above. This Cocker girl is very sweet, rides well in a car and walks pretty good on a leash. At her vet appointment we learned she has ear infections, needs to be spayed, have a dental and treatment for whipworms. She was pretty good on the table but didn't like the staff messing with her ears or looking at her teeth. She initially had a grade 3 heart murmur with tests showing that she is severely anemic, so she was put on a liquid iron supplement. This anemia diagnosis possibly indicates that she may have had heartworms at one point even though she is now testing as heartworm negative. We had her re-checked recently and her heart diagnosis is showing improvement as a grade 2 with the iron supplement showing that it is working for her. When the vet decides to re-check again, its possibly that she can be spayed and have her dental if the heart murmur issue is better. She has been groomed and moved to a wonderful foster home in Statesville. When she is done with vetting needs and can be adopted out, we suggest no young kids, teen and older okay. A fenced yard is a must. She is a good girl and will be a nice companion. This dog will not be available until all vetting needs are done. When she is ready, her adoption fee will be $400.
