Tulsa SPCA assists with Breeder Rescue

Tulsa SPCA assists with Breeder Rescue

TULSA SPCA works with the Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF) in effort to give hope of a new life for six pets that were temporarily housed at City Veterinary Hospital.  Breeders are slowly recognizing the difficulty of complying with the regulations that have been proposed as part of the Commercial Breeders Act.  These new regulations will go into effect in January.  To comply with the new regulations breeders will need to be rid of extra dogs, and some are turning to rescue groups for help.  Many of these dogs that have entered Tulsa SPCA from these breeders have many medical issues, such as poor dental health, eye infections, skin diseases, and other preventable problems.  Tulsa SPCA is fortunate to have extraordinary donors who designate donations to our Sammy Fund.  For more information on our Sammy Fund, please visit the Sammy Fund page at Tulsa SPCA home page.

Meet the six we received while 

working with ARF:

Meet Spock.  He came to Tulsa SPCA on Wednesday, December 8^th.  He is so excited to see anyone who will give him the time.  He is full of energy and hope for his future.

Meet Dimples.  She came to Tulsa SPCA on Wednesday, December 8^th.  She is starving for attention and is very curious about her new environment.  She is full of energy and love.

Meet Verna.  She came to Tulsa SPCA on Wednesday, December 8^th.  She is just like Dimples; starving for attention and very curious about her new environment.  She is full of energy and love.

Meet Roper.  He came to Tulsa SPCA on Wednesday, December 8^th.  He keeps his head tilted to the left and is being evaluated for both neck and inner ear problems.  He is extremely sweet.

Meet Trixie.  She came to Tulsa SPCA on Thursday, December 9^th.  She is extremely scared about anyone picking her up, but once she is secure in your arms she calms down. 

Meet Peanut.  She came to Tulsa SPCA on Wednesday, December 8^th.  She is blind and unsure of what is going on.  When you take the time to be with her, she builds her trust with you. 

Tulsa SPCA is keeping extremely busy with both breeders needing to comply with the new regulations and abandoned pets.  More and more families are moving out of their homes and leaving their pets behind.  By the time the Tulsa SPCA Cruelty Investigator is called to the scenes, most pets are near the point of starvation.  We will be talking more about abandonment next week.

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.
