Tulsa SPCA assists with Breeder Rescue
Meet the six we received while
working with ARF:
Because of the medical needs, we need your continued support for our Sammy Fund. These pets deserve a second chance for a new life; a life worth living. We are starting a recognition program within our Sammy Fund.
Top Dog donation of $500.00 or more
Cat’s Meow donation of $200.00 or more
Those who donate to meet the requirements for Cat’s Meow or Top Dog will have their names engraved on plaques that will be displayed in our clinic lobby. You need to designate that you wish to support the Sammy Fund when making your donation either through our website or by mail. Donate today and help the Tulsa SPCA continue to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Oklahoma Puppy Mill Owners Dodging New Regulations - NewsOn6.com - Tulsa, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports - KOTV.com |
Tulsa SPCA received a call today and agreed to take in 6 of these dogs, otherwise they would have been euthanized due to their poor health and age. These guys range from 6 to 10 years old. They are in great spirits and we will be posting pictures of them tomorrow. One of the Yorkies is blind but has a healthy appetite. We also have a Chihuahua that has infections in both eyes, but is being treated by our vet and clinic staff. Another Yorkie is not eating, so we are starting him on less nutritious dog food and slowly switching him over to a healthy diet. Many of these dogs have been fed the cheapest dog food available and have not gotten the proper nutrients, which causes the poor skin conditions and hair loss. Once we get them to eat we will slowly switch them over to healthy food; then we will see a change in their skin and behavior.
Without the generous donations of our wonderful supporters, Tulsa SPCA would not have been able to bring in these other six dogs. We had already received 25 rescues last week from a breeder closing their doors and were at our limit. Our clinic staff did some re-arranging in the clinic to make room for these six sickly guys and gals, so these dogs could have a second chance at a wonderful life.
Below is a video from NewsOn6. Some of the puppies shown on this video came to Tulsa SPCA for care and will soon find their new family.
