Ranger wasn’t going to survive the winter…
Words can never fully express how much you mean to the Placer SCPA. You’ve had an incredible impact on the lives of hundreds of cats and dogs here in Placer County, like Ranger.
This small, timid pup must have been on his own for most of his short life before an Animal Control Officer noticed him limping along a side road. She brought him in – and not a moment to soon.
Not only was Ranger hungry, dirty, and flea-ridden – his front left leg was severely broken, perhaps from a fall or being hit by a car.
With these conditions, I doubt he could have survived winter.
But thanks to compassionate people like you, he didn’t have to try. After a thorough checkup and a gentle cleaning, our veterinarians were able to pinpoint the break – and it was worse than we thought. We casted and recasted his leg regularly, each time taking x-rays to monitor the healing process. Luckily, we were successful and able to save Ranger’s leg.
After many months in foster care and lots of checkups, Ranger was a new dog — cheerful, active, inquisitive, pain-free… and ready for adoption. It wasn’t long before a family chose to invite him into their home – an offer he gladly accepted. we’ve already heard from the dad, who said that Ranger as fitting in perfectly and had made a beautiful addition to their lives.
Your generous support made this possible. You helped save Ranger. And your next gift will rescue more suffering animals in our community.
They come to the Placer SPCA each day in urgent need of:
- Food and shelter
- Medical care, vaccines, and sterilization
- Adoption services and behavioral training that ensures a smooth transition into new loving homes
- Education for children and our community about humane care for animals
- And so much more!
Your support has an incredible, life-changing impact on roughly 3000 animals… every month! You ensure they receive exactly what they need to achieve a better life.
Today, I hope you’ll continue making a powerful difference for good in our community by clicking below to make a tax-deductible gift. And if you’d ever like to see your support in action, I would be honored to welcome you here and thank you in person. You will love meeting some of the cats and dogs you are helping save.
